Citus is an open-source extension to Postgres that transforms Postgres into a distributed database, scaling horizontally. The fact that Citus is built on top of Postgres is a huge benefit to our users: it means that when you choose Citus, you get all the great features that are available in Postgres. And Postgres itself is an awesome database. Awesome. As a team, we value the foundation we're built on and regularly aim to contribute back to it. We have a number of developers that have contributed to Postgres over the years from features like watch, event triggers, and the PostgreSQL extension framework.
Recently, a few more of our engineers expressed an interest in giving back to the PostgreSQL community. In fact, it's a common question: How can we better help the PostgreSQL project? And a common answer is reviewing patches. To help kick-start that process, we organized a session and carved out a few days just for patch review during the most recent commitfest.
