pg-background 1.9.1-1
Package Information
| Description | Background SQL extension for PostgreSQL pg_background is a PostgreSQL extension to execute arbitrary SQL commands in background worker processes within PostgreSQL. It allows workloads requiring asynchronous execution, autonomous transactions, and long-running operations without blocking client sessions. Unlike dblink (which creates a separate connection) or client-side async patterns, pg_background workers run inside the database server with full access to local resources while operating in independent transactions. |
