Shaun M. Thomas has been working with PostgreSQL since late 2000. He is a frequent contributor to the PostgreSQL Performance and General mailing lists, assisting other DBAs with the knowledge he’s gained over the years.

Most recently, he has contributed the Shard Manager extension and the walctl WAL management suite.
