[Qgis-developer] Compression in libpq?

2015-02-13 Thread Andreas Neumann

Hi,

Just came across this:

http://michael.otacoo.com/postgresql-2/postgres-9-5-feature-highlight-pglz-compression-libpqcommon/

This read is very technical.

Question: does this mean that a future libpq will support compression? I 
think this would be very interesting for us, esp. if you work with 
PostgreSQL connections through slower network connections. I always 
found remote Postgis connections that are not on the same LAN quite slow.


Any comments?

Hi Jean-Roc,

Thanks about this hint. I am vaguely aware about this option with pg 
connections through ssh with gzip. But I did not try it. Do you have any 
pointers how to set this up?


Anyway - having this built in to our existing software without having to 
set up ssh connections would be a big plus.


Thanks,
Andreas

The connections are made through KiTTY which create a ssh tunnel, all 
the applications then connect to the distant postgresql server like a 
local one with the bonus of encryption, compression and no application 
specific setup (even if I would love having an unblocked 5432 port).

Re: [Qgis-developer] [Qgis-psc] QGIS Certification IRC meeting, Thrus 12 Feb, 2015

2015-02-13 Thread Jonathan Moules
Hi Trevor,
We never really discussed that during the meeting, though it’s a good question. 
The meeting more went in an “assigning tasks” kind of direction, touching a few 
questions here and there. I think one of the potential tasks was going to be 
about covering that sort of question. It’s also something I’ll try and work 
into the questionnaire I’m formulating.

Cheers,
Jonathan

12 Feb, 2015


Thanks for the link. I would have liked to be involved but couldn't be there 
today.

I know this was discussed briefly before but I'm still unsure of the answer. Is 
the main push to test tool competency or is underlying knowledge of spatial 
problems and processes part of the purpose?  I have materials from my GIS intro 
course I teach for the University of Calgary that is more focused on 
understanding that uses QGIS. I am willing to share these but the how to 
sections are older and would need to be updated (I teach this course every 18 
months).

I realize that this will be QGIS focused and to provide something similar to 
commercial certification the focus needs to mostly focus on tool specific 
competency. I would however suggest that having a solid coverage of basic GIS 
knowledge would be a step up over commercial certification programs where it is 
not uncommon to see people with credentials on paper who understand very little.

If someone can fill me in where we are at that level of specifics I would 
appreciate it.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Compression in libpq?

2015-02-13 Thread Vincent Picavet - ML
Hi,

Another option is to use SSL, which since version 0.9.8 uses compression by 
default. In this case you do not need any specific software neither tunnels.

SSH tunnels are a good solution too though. 
Setting up a VPN with compression activated is another option.

Just be aware that compressing compressed data is useless, so better choose a 
single option and stick to it.

Vincent
