About:
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database system known for its reliability, feature robustness, and standards compliance. It provides advanced capabilities like complex queries, foreign keys, triggers, updatable views, and transactional integrity, making it suitable for demanding enterprise applications.
Key Features:
  • ACID compliance for data integrity
  • Advanced SQL compliance and extensibility
  • Support for JSON and other NoSQL-style data types
  • Sophisticated query planner and optimizer
  • Robust replication and high availability options
Use Cases:
  • Serving as the primary data store for web and mobile applications
  • Powering complex, data-driven enterprise systems and data warehouses
Alternatives:
  • MySQL – More common for web applications, but PostgreSQL offers stronger standards compliance and advanced features.
  • SQLite – Embedded database library, not a client-server system like PostgreSQL.
