About MonPG
MonPG is a PostgreSQL monitoring and performance optimization platform built for production teams. It connects query history, plan evidence, lock pressure, vacuum health, replication lag, WAL growth, and smart alerts in one focused workflow — for self-hosted PostgreSQL and managed services like AWS RDS, Aurora, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Google Cloud SQL, and AlloyDB.
Who writes this
MonPG and its blog are built and written by dbivio. dbivio builds MonPG and writes its PostgreSQL field notes: production diagnostics, query performance, and the operational lessons behind them. Every field note on this site comes from operating real PostgreSQL fleets: the incidents, the diagnostics that actually worked, and the fixes that survived production.
The writing follows one rule: no advice we would not run on our own databases. If a post covers lock queues, vacuum pressure, or a migration pattern, it is because we hit it, measured it, and fixed it first.
What MonPG believes
- Evidence over dashboards. A CPU graph is a symptom. The query family, wait event, lock chain, or plan change behind it is the answer.
- PostgreSQL only. One engine, done deeply — not twenty integrations done shallowly.
- Your data stays yours. The collector runs inside your network with a read-only role; credentials never leave your environment.
