WHY WE BUILT YET ANOTHER POSTGRES CONNECTION POOLER
Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter
PgDog is a new connection pooler for PostgreSQL designed to overcome limitations faced by existing tools, particularly in handling session state and database features like SET commands and LISTEN/NOTIFY. It uses a built-in SQL parser to manage connection states and ensures efficient performance by using a multithreaded architecture based on Rust's Tokio.
