Wrapping Up

In this chapter, you explored common application features like adding tags and paginating results. You walked through some of the database design details for gem code, including the schema, indexes, and queries. You explored three pagination techniques, comparing their result set consistency and performance.

While you’ve learned many ways to improve the efficiency of queries that read data, what about the performance of queries that write data?

In the next chapter, you’ll learn how to create more efficient data writes into PostgreSQL. You’ll put various “bulk loading” techniques into action. Read on to learn more.
