Knowing some internals of PostgreSQL can be very useful when faced with an unusual situation or challenge. However, can we cover the topic in an unconventional way? Let’s say in the form of pranks for your colleagues. We will cover: • Disabling or changing some crucial parameters • Filling up the disk • Introducing random errors • Delaying replication • Disabling indexes • Making PostgreSQL fail • … and more Note: Don’t try this at home. Or at work. The examples are given as a way to demonstrate some PostgreSQL behaviour and are performed by a trained professional.
