Why Choose MicrocosmWorks for PostgreSQL Consulting?
PostgreSQL is the world's most advanced open-source database, but unlocking its full potential requires deep expertise. We've scaled PostgreSQL from single instances to distributed clusters handling billions of rows, navigating partitioning, replication, connection management, and the dozens of configuration knobs that make the difference between good and exceptional performance.
Our PostgreSQL Consulting Capabilities
- Architecture Review — Audit your PostgreSQL setup, identify risks and optimization opportunities, and provide a prioritized improvement roadmap.
- Scaling Strategy — Design horizontal and vertical scaling plans including read replicas, partitioning, Citus distributed tables, and connection pooling.
- High Availability — Implement streaming replication, automatic failover with Patroni, and multi-AZ deployments for 99.99% uptime.
- Advanced Features — Leverage PostgreSQL's advanced capabilities — JSONB, full-text search, pgvector for AI, row-level security, and logical replication.
- Migration to PostgreSQL — Migrate from Oracle, SQL Server, or MySQL to PostgreSQL with comprehensive schema conversion and data validation.
- Managed vs Self-Hosted — Guide the decision between RDS, Aurora, Neon, Supabase, or self-managed PostgreSQL based on your requirements.
Technology Stack
We work with PostgreSQL across all platforms — AWS RDS/Aurora, Neon Serverless, Supabase, and self-hosted on Kubernetes. Our toolkit includes Patroni for HA, PgBouncer for pooling, pg_partman for partitioning, Citus for distributed SQL, and pgvector for AI applications.
Who This Is For
Teams running PostgreSQL that need scaling guidance, performance optimization, or high-availability architecture. Also for organizations considering migration to PostgreSQL from other databases. Whether you're at 100GB or 10TB, we help you get the most from PostgreSQL.

Frequently Asked Questions
MicrocosmWorks offers PostgreSQL consulting and scaling services at rates between $25-$50/hour depending on the complexity of your database environment and the level of expertise required.
Yes, we implement connection pooling with PgBouncer or Pgpool-II, configure read replicas, and optimize your PostgreSQL cluster to handle millions of concurrent connections with minimal latency.
We evaluate your workload and recommend a combination of vertical scaling, horizontal read replicas, table partitioning, and connection pooling. For write-heavy workloads, we implement sharding strategies using Citus or custom partitioning schemes.
Absolutely. We start every engagement with a comprehensive PostgreSQL performance audit that examines query plans, index usage, vacuum statistics, and configuration parameters to identify bottlenecks before recommending scaling solutions.
Yes, MicrocosmWorks has extensive experience migrating databases from MySQL, Oracle, and SQL Server to PostgreSQL, including schema conversion, stored procedure rewriting, and data validation to ensure zero data loss during migration.
