Hi, Yes, please find below few examples.
OnLogin/Logout. I want to log/audit each attempt to login (successful and/or not). Who/how long was logged in DB (who logged in out of business hours (maybe deny access)). Set session variable based on username (or maybe IP address) - for example DATE format. OnStartup (or AfterStarted) I want to start a procedure which check for a specific event in a loop and send an email. OnDDL Log every DDL in a DB log table (who/when altered/created/dropped/truncated a specific object) and send an email. Out of this topic nice to have (I could elaborate any of below topic if you are interested in): Storage quota per user (or schema). Audit – I know about existence of pgaudit extension but it is far from ideal (I compare to Oracle Fine Grained Audit). Duplicate WAL (to have WAL in 2 different places – for example I take backup on separate disk and I want to have a copy of WAL on that disk) To have something like Oracle SQL Tuning Advisor (for example I have a “big” SQL which take longer than it should (probably the optimizer didn’t find the pest execution plan in the tame allocated to this) – this tool provide the possibility to analyze comprehensive the SQL and offer solutions (maybe different execution plan, maybe offer suggestion to create a specific index…)). Best regards.

These DB Level triggers are quite useful for example if somebogy want to set some PG env. variables depends on user belonging to one or another role or want to track who/wen logged in/out, start a stored procedure AfterPgStarted and so on. Do you have some examples of these useful triggers? I don't know any one. Regards Pavel Thanks! The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged.
