Overcoming the Barriers of Commercial DBs with Open Source and AI… EDB Hosts ‘PostgreSQL AI Summit’

A company's approach to artificial intelligence (AI) begins with determining the optimal structure for data storage and management, often facing challenges such as high costs of commercial databases and reliance on specific enterprise technologies. To effectively utilize AI, companies need to establish new infrastructures, including vector search capabilities, Search Augmentation Generative (RAG) systems, and data lakehouses. EDB is notable for connecting companies and technology partners that have transitioned to open-source databases. On September 3, EDB will host the 'EDB Postgres AI Summit Seoul 2026' at the Sofitel Ambassador Seoul, starting at 10:00 AM. This event is the largest PostgreSQL conference in Korea, themed 'Change the Game,' focusing on the shift from commercial databases to open-source and AI-driven frameworks, featuring real-world case studies. Approximately 300 C-level executives and IT decision-makers from various sectors are expected to attend, with participation by invitation only. The summit will include 15 sessions with customer case studies and technical presentations. Notable discussions will include IBK Industrial Bank of Korea's migration of 15 core systems to PostgreSQL, a semiconductor company's diversification of MPP databases on a DBaaS platform, and Kyobo Book Centre's database modernization strategy. Shopcast will present its development of an 'Agentic Lakehouse' integrating AI technology with a data lakehouse framework. The keynote address will be given by Kim Deok-joong, discussing organizational management strategies for integrating AI agents. The technical sessions will cover the architecture of the 'EDB Postgres AI' platform, which supports AI vector search and RAG, with live demonstrations of the analytics engine ClickHouse and LakeHouse technology for analyzing petabyte-scale data. EDB's domestic distributors and international partners will participate as sponsors. The summit aims to showcase technologies and case studies from the domestic ecosystem, addressing PostgreSQL adoption, system migration, operations, data analysis, and AI implementation. EDB manages transaction, analytics, and AI workloads using Postgres in cloud environments, serving over 1,500 global customers. Herve Timsit, EDB's Chief Revenue Officer, emphasized the event's focus on sharing tangible results and addressing the challenges of commercial databases while investing in AI infrastructure.

After GTA 6: Extended Look Showed Rockstar’s Game Running at 30FPS, Tech Experts Say a 60FPS Console Version Is ‘Extremely Unlikely’ and ‘Genuinely Challenging’ Even on PC

Digital Foundry has analyzed the recent 27-minute reveal of Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 6, which showcased gameplay at 30 frames per second (fps). The game is set to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S this November, with a focus on maximizing visual detail at the fixed frame rate. Significant advancements in character rendering, including skin shading and hair simulation, have been noted. The internal rendering on the PS5 is speculated to operate at 1440p without dynamic resolution scaling, although this may result in some softness and aliasing. Digital Foundry expresses skepticism about the feasibility of a 60fps mode on current consoles, citing the game's design balance and the complex CPU demands of its detailed world. Future console iterations and a PC release may support higher resolutions and features like DLSS, but achieving 60fps could still be challenging. IGN has provided exclusive insights into various aspects of the game, including its romance system and expansive map.

Nodusfall isn’t Elden Ring, Monster Hunter or a typical HoYoverse game—it’s something very different

Nodusfall is a new co-op action game from HoYoverse, distinct from their previous titles that featured gacha mechanics and collectible characters. The game does not currently confirm any gacha elements, focusing instead on cosmetic monetization. It was revealed at Gamescom, drawing initial comparisons to Elden Ring and Monster Hunter, but it offers a unique gameplay experience. Set in a world where divine authority has collapsed, players engage in contracts to hunt beasts and customize characters with different combat styles. The gameplay emphasizes fast-paced action, teamwork, and strategy, with players facing challenging boss encounters. HoYoverse plans to provide updates on beta access and further developments through their official channels.
