This approach can determine malicious activity and block it by monitoring the flow of data within the application, all the way from the user to the database. During the development stage, vulnerabilities can arise when developers use third-party open-source code or make an error in application logic.

Database security is crucial to protecting sensitive information stored in a database. A critical aspect is authentication, which refers to verifying the identity of a user trying to access the database. PostgreSQL server authentication refers to verifying the identity of a user trying to connect to the PostgreSQL server.

In database management, well-formatted SQL code is easier to read and a vital aspect of maintaining clean, efficient, and error-free databases. PostgreSQL developers and database administrators often deal with complex SQL queries, making code readability a critical factor for productivity. What is pgFormatter?

As an experienced database developer, you should know that these kinds of queries should not exist in any production code. This is not a best practice at all, and we strongly encourage you to always create an explicit PK in your tables. Suppose you have SELECT * queries in your application code.

PSMDB), the best practice to create an index was doing it in a rolling manner. Before Percona Server for MongoDB 4.4 Many folks used to create directly on Primary, resulting in the first index being created successfully on Primary and then replicated to Secondary nodes.

Triggers on Data Definition Language (DDL) events are a powerful feature of PostgreSQL that allows you to perform additional actions in response to changes to the database schema. DDL events include operations such as CREATE, ALTER, and DROP statements on tables, indexes, and other database objects.
