PostgreSQL Erfahrungen

PostgreSQL - A World Class DBMS that you can have for free

Kommentare: I have used PostgreSQL for Windows since 2008 and it has been a pleasure. Some DBs have tables with more than 1 million records and performance seems not to be affected.

Vorteile:

It is free although there are some paid options that include support and special configurations. It is very stable, I have not had any critical situations like data loss. As a ASP.NET developer, it integrates easy using ADO.NET Data Providers for which there are many choices. Concurrency control is included which is very useful for data integrity. Versions for Linux, Mac, Solaris and BSD are available which increases the integration power. A huge number of third party add-ons (paid and free) can be found. PostgreSQL is being continuously improving, there is a well defined plan of maintenance and new versions are coming out regularly.

Nachteile:

I have not found anything against this DMBS product. I have accomplished all of my goals successfully.

The Reliable Workhorse with Infinite Flexibility

Kommentare: Nothing short of exceptional. It covers all the bases with its reliability and performance, and its flexibility is unmatched. I've found it difficult to recommend any other database unless you have specific requirements, such as a document store or a graph database. Postgres fills in all the gaps and has become my go-to choice for any project that requires a rock-solid, flexible relational database.

Vorteile:

does the basics like a pro while offering infinite flexibility. From JSON columns to full-text search, there's a plugin for every need. Plus, it plays nicely with every ORM known to man. Postgres has mastered the art of doing the basics exceptionally well. It's reliable, performant, and stands strong as a relational database. But what sets it apart is the remarkable flexibility it offers. Need to store and query JSON data? No problem. Looking for full-text search capabilities? Postgres has your back with plugins that can handle it all. This database truly adapts to your evolving needs, making it a versatile choice for any project.

Nachteile:

No Issues at All, Just Vendor Restrictions. Now, I have to dig deep to find something negative about Postgres. The truth is, I haven't encountered any issues with Postgres itself. Its robustness and stability have been flawless in my experience. If I had to point a finger, it would be at the vendors (like Heroku) who occasionally restrict certain plugins. But hey, that's not Postgres's fault—it's still a champ in its own right.

Relational database with less capability

Kommentare: It is used when a commercial partner vendor introduces a commercial system and creates a small-scale system. If you connect multiple units, it is easy to use with a response that can support the operation without installing a dedicated server machine. When using packaged software in a large-scale system, there may be restrictions on the number of data elements and the number of servers connected, but we were able to reduce installation and operation costs. I was able to keep the cost of the database low and spend money on packaged software options.

Vorteile:

Since it was developed to comply with SQL standards, there are no problems migrating from other RDBMS. I think the popularity of MySQL as an RDBMS is split in two, but PostgreSQL does not have the following MySQL keylogging problem, so it can be said that it is an RDBMS with little custom. We recommend PostgreSQL as the first choice for RDBMS unless otherwise specified because it works stably and can support real operations. When a small business is a customer's system project, the RDBMS license fee is often too high to pay. In such cases, customers will be happy to propose PostgreSQL, which is stable, reliable, and free to use. Unless it is a situation that requires a paid database, I think PostgreSQL is sufficient. It is not inferior to the function.

Nachteile:

When you are looking for something you want to look up in a manual, it is often difficult to find it and, in the end, you often consult blog articles written by experts instead of the manual. I want the structure of the manual to be easy to understand.

One of the best overall databases in the market

Kommentare: For overall backend database purposes I would currently not choose anything other than PostgreSQL. Widely known, easy to hire talent for, secure and reliable.

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is well supported by backend frameworks like Django. Getting into the command line of PostgreSQL database isn't necessary that often, but when a must, it works very robustly.

Nachteile:

Not suitable for some data types as well as some of the competition, like time series data, that is becoming more and more important via IoT use cases.

PSQL databse.

Kommentare: Overall this is good software to use when you in a large applications.

Vorteile:

This is one of the best database software I’ve used. It has a lot of features/functions that are usable for Big projects. One of them I've use is the PSQL vector search that is not widely used but very important feature that built in PSQL, beside that it has a tons of usable functions to do operations inside database and then get the result for example timezone adjusting, manipulation with data, string function and etc.

Nachteile:

Trully telling there should be few cons in this software. I've used this for over 4 years sometimes find to difficult to configure it it linux environments compared with mysql.

Very complete and stable database

Kommentare: I have very good experience installing and configuring databases with PostgreSQL.
Once installed and configured it is very stable, almost without errors and one can rest assured that the data is fine

Vorteile:

It is very complete for any type of project or application. It is stable, easy to use and can handle a lot of structured data. It is free software and is very well documented It is very popular and has a very varied community around the project

Nachteile:

Its installation and configuration can be a bit complex at first. Being free they are not obliged to provide support Requires specific tuning for each possible scenario

The database everyone should be using

Kommentare: PostgreSQL is an incredibly powerful piece of software that should be the RDBMS in every software project instead of less powerful but more famous alternatives.
Personally it will be my choice for every future project.

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is so powerful, complete and stable. This should come with no surprise given the long history behind it. At the same time it's incredibly modern and supports new paradigms (like NoSQL, JSON data types) and it's also very simple to familiarize with.

Nachteile:

It's unbelievable how PostgreSQL is not as well-known as one of his competitors (MySQL) notwithstanding the fact that is so much more powerful.

The best user tailored db experience.

Kommentare: I use PostgreSQL with almost every endeavor nowadays. Both at work and with personal projects, it is very robust when used in my research field which is optimization and operations research, but also flexible enough to help me quickly deploy web apps.

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is by far the most user friendly and most advanced database system out of the top 5 popular choices. It's inherently relational making it easily compatible with ORMs, has many smaller quirks like jsonb storage, the WITH keyword, and a vast amount of data types. It's also one of the most dynamic DBMS as it releases major changes more than once a year, with an ecosystem that consistently adapts to these versions.

Nachteile:

Extensions in pgsql could use a bit of streamlining (extensions like pg_cron or similar), which was a bit complicated to do in with CI. Another concern would be some stability issues with the latest pgAdmin database interface, but in all fairness that isn't directly an issue with pgsql.

A robust database engine for your web projects and platforms

Kommentare: I have used this database to carry out web projects in the health sector and it has been of great help to manage processes and data in a very efficient way and with the best performance that I have seen.

Vorteile:

What I like most about this database engine is its security, scalability and high performance for the development of platforms and web applications, easy to maintain and manage

Nachteile:

That I did not like the product, its difficult or complex syntax, sometimes the very tedious query error

My Go-To RDBMS

Vorteile:

It is fast, reliable and scalable; the perfect RDBMS in my humble opinion.

Nachteile:

The learning curve, but even that wasn't actually so bad.

One of the best database managers for the world.

Kommentare: From my point of view postgreSQL I consider it one of the most powerful database managers, since I use it daily, from my role as a database administrator, as well as a web developer, since it allows to manage environments put into production easily, with an acceptable and intuitive configuration.

Vorteile:

1164/5000 -Easy installation and configuration in other environments. - Pgadmin management interface of the databases, very intuitive and complete with the necessary to a few clicks, I recommend keeping the graphical tool for the stability it offers. -It has a connection balancer, known as pgpool that allows to manage the cluster structure well. -Principles of replication between active-active or active-passive servers Variety of console-level command options for restore or backup tasks and maintenance tasks -principal manager for developers for the scalability and stability it offers. -Management of free access, which allows the use of it without any problem, without any cost -Ideal manager for the management of relational databases -Allows the management of different versions on the same server with multiple database intentions with different listening ports.

Nachteile:

- Poor documentation - Functional technicians commonly report a slowness at the BD level, but that depends on how the DB is structured and especially if good database practices are applied

Great, yet not perfect Rdbms

Kommentare: I will use it as long it is the best in the marke

Vorteile:

It supports a wide range of data types, which makes it a great candidate.

Nachteile:

complex to set up and configure, especially for those new to RDBMS

Postgresql (psql) is a great way to start with "serious" RDBMS

Kommentare: Postrgresql was a DB engine for our retail stores cashier system. TCO was 20% compared to Oracle (including hardware and support). Fast, flexible and with great support of programming languages, with API compatibility helped us to run a full scale retail chain (16 offline stores) with real time stock management in our online store.

Vorteile:

+ scalability + SQL compilant + security + open source (free but not without costs) + offers more field types than mysql + API compatibility + low TCO - cheaper than Oracle (but with similar performance) + great programming language support (Python, PHP, C++ etc)

Nachteile:

- free (open source) does not mean witout costs. Sometimes it is very hard to find a specialist that can properly handle PG issues - not present at most of hosting services (but you can always run a virtual machine on AWS EC2) - less tools for data manipulation/analysis compared to MySQL

Experience with PostgreSQL

Kommentare: We have used the database for the implementation of reporters in most cases, seeking to remove the load from the main database.

Vorteile:

It allows me to implement a robust database in a very short time, using a structure very similar to Oracle, in addition to having many tools that allow us to manage the data in the best way.

Nachteile:

There are functionalities that with third-party products can obtain better results.

The best database offering available

Kommentare: Excellent. The documentation is complete and well-written.

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is standards compliant, performant, high-quality, easy to use, well documented, innovative and feature-complete.

Nachteile:

Replication still has a way to go compared to some competing offerings, but additional software can be used to fill in the missing features.

Best Relational Database and it's Open Source

Kommentare: I've found PostgreSQL to be a powerfully efficient and secure tool for managing relational databases

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL excels in its strong documentation, large data handling, and exceptional security.

Nachteile:

Challenges with screen navigation, JSON handling, and data comparison can make it less user-friendly

PostgreSQL Review

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is an excellent choice for working with relational databases. After extensive experience with databases, I found that PostgreSQL is one of the most reliable options. It is the preeminent open source SQL system and potentially the best of all, open source or not. PostgreSQL offers both remarkable performance and dependability.

Nachteile:

The SQL syntax for Postgresql was slightly different than what I was used to.

Great SQL db

Vorteile:

Free and open source database Ease of scaling the database Easy to work with date, time and timezone jsonb type is really great so we don't need to use non relational database like mongodb fast queries

Nachteile:

I have yet not found a great admin tool for postgres. pgadmin is ok but It is not as good as phpmyadmin or others.

Open source relational database with lots of features

Vorteile:

Open source. Offers a rich set of features and extensions. Available as fully managed database on most cloud platforms.

Nachteile:

Some cases, often involving large sets of data, might require some advanced knowledge in order to run properly/performant.

Amaing SQL Dialect and Database

Kommentare: Having PostgresSQL has enabled me to streamline development of many data pipelines. Not having to fumble over function parameters because of PostgresSQL's intuitive operations has improved my ease of work.

Vorteile:

Love this dialect. I find many of the built in function improve experience but simplifying the needs for cryptic code. For example, changing from data type to another data type, one can use the :: operator. This operator is quick and easy to understand.

Nachteile:

Unfortunately, sometimes code needs to be translated to more standard SQL that would work across multiple dialect. While the built in functions of PostgresSQL has improved my easy of use and because some of these functions are not standard SQL, I find myself having to continue using more cryptic, yet standard, SQL.

PostgreSQL Review

Kommentare: I highly recommend PostgreSQL, i have been using it at work and at the university

Vorteile:

First, it is open source and wildly used database, it is customizable and scalable

Nachteile:

It does not contain a customer service because it is open source but of course you can find ur answers on the internet and platforms

Best SQL for Analytics and in terms of speed.

Kommentare: By using PostgreSQL as backend database for our large applications which uses large amount of data then selling that applications to customers we are getting benefits.

Vorteile:

PostgreSQL is the best I can say. Its performance is very fast in terms of getting data and inserting data. Means if we are inserting entries in bulk then it would do it in a good speed as compared to other databases. It is very good for Analytics and it has good tooling than other databases. It supported many other features like using of arrays which is not in MySql so I would say it is good database to use to make applications.

Nachteile:

The big disadvantage is it takes more memory than other databases if you have many connections and replication is bit difficult in PostgreSQL which might get easy in future updates else it is a good software.

The best SQL and open source database.

Kommentare: Because range queries are integrated, it is much less effort to query compared to MySQL.

Vorteile:

It is fast and reliable, manages inserts and updates of tens of thousands of lines impeccably. PostgreSQL implements SQL standards very well and supports advanced SQL stuff, the PostSQL database works very well with hibernation HPA and we have been using it extensively together with the Spring framework, the consistency is also very good, you will never lose data or lose data. JSON support in the latest version has made things easier for us now, since we do not need to migrate the schema as always before.  Finally, the backup methods through pg_dump are easy to use and ensure that you can always back up before any major changes.

Nachteile:

It is not very intuitive, in my opinion, and I think those problems must be solved before I can get the kind of traction that MySQL has, also more open sources admit mysql but not postgres. These are some of the problems with postgres.
