Teaching an old dog new tricks: extending Postgres capabilities with Rust

Postgres represents a cornerstone of many modern apps, and yet has the potential to play a much larger role than that of a simple database. Its extensibility has always been a core strength, and today pgx-rs allows extensions to be authored in Rust, making it easier and safer, unlocking that unrealized potential. In this experience-based, practical session, we'll explore Postgres extensibility features and we'll develop, test, and deploy a real extension using pgx-rs, a comprehensive open source framework to extend Postgres.
