Using LLMs and MCP to Debug PG Performance in Rails
I've recently automated a large portion of my Rails performance audits. In this tutorial, I'll describe how to configure an AI-powered PG performance debugging. We will cover using LLMs with custom MCP (model context protocol) n8n integration. We will also discuss the legal and security implications of connecting AI to the production database. There’s also a live demo available!

Mastering Postgres Replication Slots: Preventing WAL Bloat and Other Production Issues
Over the last couple of years, I’ve helped dozens of users and organizations to build Change Data Capture (CDC) pipelines for their Postgres databases. A key concern in that process is setting up and managing replication slots, which are Postgres' mechanism for making sure that any segments of the write-ahead log (WAL) of the database are kept around until they have been processed by registered replication consumers.
When not being careful, a replication slot may cause unduly large amounts of WAL segments to be retained by the database. This post describes best practices helping to prevent this and other issues, discussing aspects like heartbeats, replication slot failover, monitoring, the management of Postgres publications, and more. While this is primarily based on my experience of using replication slots via Debezium’s Postgres connector, the principles are generally applicable and are worth considering also when using other CDC tools for Postgres based on logical replication.
So why don't we pick the optimal query plan?
