Webinar Recap: Top 10 EDB Postgres Features Developers Love

July 25, 2023

EDB Oracle Compatibility makes applications running on Postgres look, feel and operate more like Oracle than any other Postgres experience. This not only makes EDB Postgres the ideal platform to migrate existing Oracle databases, but it's also the perfect choice to support your next business-critical application.

Developers have once again named Postgres as their most loved database, and EDB gives them even more to love about it. We’ve taken some of the most popular features from Oracle and added them to EDB Postgres Advanced Server (EPAS), making your teams more productive and your applications more secure than any other Postgres platform.

That’s why EDB recently hosted the webinar “Why the Most Productive and Secure Teams Use EDB’s Oracle Compatible Postgres,” which you can watch on-demand on our website, right now.

Adam Wright, a Senior Product Manager at EDB and Vibhor Kumar, Global Vice President, Performance Engineering & Architecture at EDB shared their favorite features of EPAS.

Adam and Vibhor’s Top Ten Features of EPAS:

  1. Autonomous Transaction
  2. Data Redaction
  3. Hierarchical Queries
  4. Virtual Private Database
  5. Optimizer Hints
  6. Advanced Partitioning
  7. DBMS_PROFILER
  8. DBMS_CRYPTO
  9. EDB*Loader
  10. EDB*WRAP
     

Watch the webinar to learn what these features do and how they can help your team extend the value of Postgres. We also share examples and real-life use cases for each feature to demonstrate how you can have a more productive and secure Postgres experience.

Adam closed out the webinar with highlights from EPAS 16, coming out Winter 2024. He previewed:
