How One Team Cut Database Costs with Data Tiering
from The Software Engineering Podcast with Fexingo: Code, Architecture, and Engineering Best Practices Hosted by Fexingo
In Episode 166 of The Software Engineering Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into a real-world case where a mid-sized SaaS company slashed its database spend by 40 percent without sacrificing performance. They walk through the technical decisions behind data tiering—moving cold data to cheaper storage, using partitioning, and leveraging PostgreSQL's declarative partitioning. The hosts break down the trade-offs, the gotchas, and the metrics that mattered, giving listeners a concrete playbook they can apply to their own infrastructure. Expect practical insights on when to tier, how to automate the process, and what to watch out for when query patterns change. No fluff, just engineering depth. #DataTiering #PostgreSQL #DatabaseCosts #CloudCostOptimization #Partitioning #SoftwareEngineering #TechPodcast #Infrastructure #DevOps #StorageOptimization #Performance #DataManagement #CostReduction #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EngineeringBestPractices #TechLeadership #CloudComputing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
