Hi all,
I'm not sure if this question fits in the topic of this list.
I'm interested in partitioning and it's the first time I'd use it.
There is an issue I don't know how you handle it. Lets say I'm
interested in store monthly based statistical data like the example of
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/ddl-partitioning.html. What I
don't like of this approach is that the monthly tables, rules... must be
created "manually" or at least I haven't found any other option.
My question is how do you manage this? do you have a cron task that
creates automatically these monthly elements (tables, rules, ... ) or
there is another approach that doesn't require external things like cron
only PostgreSQL.
