Congrats on the launch!
For those who have not experimented with columnar based databases, I would highly recommend toying around with them.
The performance improvements can be substantial. Obviously there are drawbacks involved with integrating a new database into your infrastructure, so it is exciting to see columnar format introduced to Postgres. Removes the hurdle of learning, deploying and monitoring another database.
