Hi, I'm kind of new to postgresql and the project that I'm working on currently deals with parsing emails, storing parsed components in postgresql DB and fire triggers on certain inserts that opens socket connection with a unix tools server, initiates tools like whois, traceroute etc and unix tools server opens ODBC connection back to same postgres database and stores the results fetched from running the unix tools.
In this regard, I have to start working on some thesis topic related to the postgres database that we are using in the project. It can be in conjunction with email parsing on unix tools but the theme of the thesis topic should revolve around postgres database.
I have done alot of homework on this and could think of something like "bulk of data storage in email parsing and how vacuuming it would increase the performance" because i think this vacuum DB concept is not there in other RDBMS. This is just a petty topic but i was thinking something on these lines.
I have no clue what other options or topics do I have write to start writing my thesis on. Any kind of help would be highly appreciated in this regard.
