  PgCache is a wire-compatible, transparent Postgres proxy that caches read data, then keeps it fresh using PostgreSQL Logical Replication. PgCache is designed to accelerate PostgreSQL performance by providing a transparent caching layer between applications and the database. By utilizing Change Data Capture (CDC) through logical replication, the system ensures data remains current without requiring manual cache invalidation or application code modifications. This approach entirely eliminates the need to sprinkle cache invalidation logic throughout your application code or guess at appropriate Time-to-Live (TTL) settings. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/84-database/18884-pgcache-transparent-postgresql-query-caching-and-cdc-maintenance.html#google_vignette

ggsql: SQL For Visualization

  ggsql is a novel data visualization tool that integrates the Grammar of Graphics directly into SQL environments. Built by the creators of ggplot2, this system allows users to construct complex charts by adding declarative clauses like VISUALISE, DRAW, and SCALE to standard database queries. Unlike traditional tools that offer fixed chart types, ggsql employs a modular approach where independent components—such as layers, coordinates, and aesthetics can be combined to create custom visuals. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/84-database/18862-ggsql-sql-for-visualization-.html
