What PostgreSQL Is.
PostgreSQL (often called Postgres) is a powerful open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) known for its robustness, scalability, and flexibility.
It’s designed to handle everything from small-scale applications to large, mission-critical systems.
Postgres supports advanced features like complex queries, JSON storage, ACID compliance, and full-text search, making it a favourite for developers who need both reliability and versatility.
Unlike many traditional databases, PostgreSQL can manage both structured and unstructured data, making it ideal for modern apps that rely on analytics, automation, and integration.
Why It’s Good
PostgreSQL stands out for its balance of enterprise-grade performance and open-source freedom. It’s a database that grows with your business, offering speed, consistency, and data integrity without the hefty licensing costs.
Here’s why it’s one of our preferred data technologies:
