I'm tempted for all the wrong reasons (cool factor, premature optimization) to try YugabyteDB again. I like the strong PostgreSQL compatibility, but ran into variuos issues migrating a database over. Maybe things have changed for the better and it's time to give it another try. I used Patroni as a PostgreSQL cluster manager but found it to poorly handle cross data center nodes. (I should have used cross data center clusters).
@jamesvanderpump yes one difference with PostgreSQL is that YugabyteDB is quite new. The YSQL query layer (reusing Postgres) was introduced in 2019 and still gets lots of improvements every months. Especially for migration (first load experience, performance, support all DDL) with many recent features, and more to come. Your feedback helps to improve this 🙏
