Summary
The new open-source tool, pgslot-notify-bot, has been launched to help database administrators monitor and manage the growth of PostgreSQL replication slots. This tool provides monitoring features, instant Slack alerts for designated channels, easy setup with an .env file or docker-compose.yaml, and adjustable thresholds. Future plans include evolving the bot to monitor other common issues in PostgreSQL data replication. Users are encouraged to try out the tool, report any issues, contribute to its development, and leave a star if they find it useful.
