New Release: pgvector Production Guide
Real-world performance, indexing trade-offs, and common mistakes beyond tutorials
I’ve spent years working on 1000+ production incidents, including Sev1 cases at Microsoft for Fortune 100 companies.
These playbooks are what I wish existed when I started.
No fluff. No theory. Just tested methods, real queries, and decision frameworks.
NEW · pgvector Production Performance Guide (Early Access $9)
Vector search with PostgreSQL is a hot topic right now, but most tutorials stop at demos and don’t talk about real production challenges.
This guide focuses on the practical issues teams actually face: performance bottlenecks, common mistakes, indexing choices, and configuration details that matter in real workloads.
The content is based on hands-on research and production scenarios. It’s especially valuable for database engineers, ML engineers, and tech leads but in practice, it’s useful for anyone involved in PostgreSQL + vector search discussions, whether internal or with customers.
The current content delivers significantly more value than the price reflects (easily 3×), but it’s intentionally offered at a lower cost as an early-access release.
If you purchase during early access, you’ll receive all future updates to the guide at no additional cost. As the content expands and becomes more comprehensive over time, the price will increase accordingly.
This guide covers:
HNSW vs IVFFl
5 Problems
Quantization strategies (halfvec, bit vectors)
Scaling thresholds
Configuration templates and common mistakes
Indexing
8 sections. SQL Queries. No surprises in production.
This price is available for a limited time only.
