Why is the database slow since this morning?

A query that was executed 781 times in the last 6 hours is doing a full table scan.

How can I make that query faster?

Add an index on the transaction_id column.

Would the table benefit from any other indexes?

Yes, based on the query patterns, a composite index on (transaction_id, created_at) would be beneficial.

Do you have any other recommendations?

Based on the types of queries you have and the instance class, I recommend increasing the `work_mem` setting to 2GB.

Move fast without breaking production

Spin up instant, Copy-on-Write branches with anonymized production data. Developers can test features with realistic data independently, without waiting for staging.

1

Connect to your production database

Keep your production database where it is, whether it is AWS RDS, Aurora, GCP Cloud SQL, Azure Database, or even self-hosted.

2

Anonymize PII or other sensitive data

Using pgstream behind the scenes, mask sensitive data using configurable transformers that maintain referential integrity.

3

Staging replica with realistic data

Get a nightly synced replica of production with sensitive data removed. Ready for testing.

4

Instant dev branches

From the staging environment, instantly create Copy-on-Write branches for each pull request to accelerate development, testing, and collaboration.

5

Deploy to production without downtime

Apply database changes confidently with pgroll, serving old and new schema versions in parallel for smooth, lock-free migrations.

Meet the Xata Agent

Your PostgreSQL AI expert

Xata Agent is an open source AI agent that monitors your PostgreSQL, detects performance issues, and recommends fixes from configuration tuning to indexing and scaling. It’s like having a Postgres expert on call for your database.

  • Find root causes. Pinpoint slow queries, deadlocks, and performance bottlenecks.

  • Get actionable fixes. AI-powered suggestions from query optimization to infrastructure upgrades.

  • Ensure uptime. Proactive monitoring to keep your database healthy.

The most flexible Postgres platform ever

Postgres as a Service platforms are convenient when building fast but as you scale you need stricter security compliance, you have spending commitments negotiated with your cloud providers, and you need flexibility. We get it.

Bring your own cloud (BYOC)

Deploy the Xata data plane — the actual Postgres instances — directly in your own cloud account on AWS, GCP, or Azure. You retain full control and pay infrastructure costs directly to your provider. Your data never leaves your environment, while we continue to fully manage the platform for you.

Custom Postgres extensions

Need something specific? We can build tailored Postgres images with any extension you require, including your own custom built extensions.
