Puntos a favor:

The price vs others other there ie, MSSQL is a lot better. It is able to capture and process data very quickly.

Puntos en contra:

If your software requires over 10k transactions per second, you're gonna have to put in some serious work make Postgres scale. This is where Postgres becomes a pain to optimize.

PostgreSQL - Robustes y Seguridad en Bases de Datos

5,0 hace 5 años

Comentarios: La fasilidad de hacer BKs configurar Jobs, analizar querys y definir data tables, triggres, referencias, entre otros hace del uso y experiencia de utilizar y administrar PostgreSQL muy satisfactoria.

Puntos a favor:

PostgreSQL ofrece un potente motor de bases de datos que brinda una robustes para la administración de BD ademas de una devirsificación de herramientas para trabajar con los Data Tables, triggers, punteros, etc, el análisis de querys permite al administrador porder determinar los aspectos donde deben mejorarse los querys.

Puntos en contra:

Las opciones de configuración y personalización que nos ofrece PostgreSQL si bien son muchas, hay algunas de mayor importancia y hay que configurarlas o setearlas hasta finalizado el proceso de instalación, siendo que podria incluirse en este proceso para que no se invierta tiempo en hacer estas personalizaciones o configuraciones minimas.

Relational database with less capability

3,0 hace 3 años

Comentarios: 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.

Puntos a favor:

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.

Puntos en contra:

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.

PostgreSQL for Database

5,0 el año pasado

Puntos a favor:

PostgreSQL is one of the most popular choice for Database now and it becomes more popular as many people and companies starting to use it. PostgreSQL has great features and performances, so I'd like to recommend PostgreSQL to those who needs a reliable RDBMS.

Puntos en contra:

One thing that i dislike from PostgreSQL is it's hard to setup and install PostgreSQL at the beginning. Especially the syntax and command that PostgreSQL use.

"PostgreSQL: Ease and Efficiency in Application Development

5,0 el año pasado

Comentarios: From the first time I tried this software, I knew it stood out. All my databases now reside in it, not just for its efficiency, but for the sense of security and trust it gives me. Even when running it on less powerful machines, and experiencing some slowdowns, it has always delivered on its promises. I've been with it for nearly 7 months and have no regrets; it's been a solid choice for my projects

Puntos a favor:

I started using it because of my university and I was instantly charmed by how user-friendly the software is with its tools. I have two databases and it has never let me down. Its security is good and the information doesn't get lost.

Puntos en contra:

Throughout my journey with PostgreSQL, I've had moments of love and frustration. While I adore its sturdiness and the features it offers, I've stumbled a couple of times with its performance in specific scenarios. Sometimes, it feels like that reliable old car you know inside out, but occasionally takes a bit longer to start. Despite the minor hiccups, it remains my go-to companion when I want my data to be safe and well looked after

Reliable and performant RDBMS

5,0 el año pasado

Puntos a favor:

Much better performance and consistency vs other RDBMS, eg MySQL. It doesn't hide the complexity beyond being a DBA, which is kind of a double edged sword.

Puntos en contra:

Manual intervention needed for version upgrades, but nothing terrible.

PostgreSQL is an Open Source tool of the highest caliber for Database Management.

5,0 hace 2 años

Comentarios: Nowadays, I nearly always utilise PostgreSQL for my projects. It is incredibly durable when utilised in my engineering sector both at business and with home projects, yet versatile enough to support my speedy deployment of web apps.

Puntos a favor:

I love using PostgreSQL for the following main reasons, firstly databases with a lot of data can be stored, it is possible to have different settings for various databases on a same server and on top that it costs nothing to use PostgreSQL since it is an open source software.

Puntos en contra:

One of the drawback of the PostgreSQL is CPU usage is rather high.

An industry standard rdbms

5,0 el año pasado

Puntos a favor:

It’s an industry standard tool - we use it for all kinds of CRUDS Only gave 3 stars on ease of use because I am not the most educated user!

Puntos en contra:

No cons - mostly PEBKAC issues at most, but it’s not PostgreSQL’s fault!

Postgress as a relational DBMS.

4,0 hace 2 años

Puntos a favor:

I have used this several times while I was studying and in my company also. t supports ACID properties and it can handle high traffic. I can use database indexing, different data types. functions, aggregates and complex queries. There's a huge community support and I asked for assistance twice from them.

Puntos en contra:

I doubt the performance of this when I handle complex queries.

My choice for IoT

5,0 hace 2 años

Comentarios: PostgreSQL is a powerful database that can handle complex IoT applications. Additionally, the security features of PostgreSQL make it an attractive option for companies dealing with sensitive data.

Puntos a favor:

Security is very important in IoT. PostgreSQL offers robust security features such as SSL encryption and row-level access controls, ensuring that data is kept safe and secure. PostgreSQL is highly scalable and can handle large volumes of data, making it ideal for IoT applications that generate huge amounts of data.

Puntos en contra:

PostgreSQL has a steep learning curve compared to other databases. Its advanced features and complex commands can be overwhelming for new users. While there is a large community of PostgreSQL users, finding professional support can be challenging, especially for companies with specific needs.

PostgreSQL is powerful and robust, it fits perfectly in large projects

5,0 hace 7 años

Comentarios: With PostgreSQL I have been able to perform my work satisfactorily on multiple occasions, my bosses and I are happy with the results we have obtained, saving hardware investment costs because we have focused on the database, I hope to have future benefits to the use it in projects for own clients.

Puntos a favor:

I really like PostgreSQL I have used it several times for large projects in my previous works and in the current one it is used as a database for the web page of the institution, the power of PL / pgSQL is excellent, it allows me to program commercial layers in the database without any problem this improves the response times of the final applications and allows investments in hardware in the database servers instead of in the application, the management of schemes is perfect. It is important to mention that it is free software that implies having a large database without licensing costs. A feature of PostgreSQL is the multiversion concurrency control that allows transactions consistent with time, which provides great performance advantages. PgAdmin is a graphical tool with which I can manage different databases easily and intuitively, execute SQL statements, as well as create backup copies or perform maintenance tasks. Another thing that I like about PostgreSQL is that it is available for many platforms, it is possible to install it from the repositories of the Linux version that I use. It should be noted that the PostgreSQL user community is one of the most active in the market

Puntos en contra:

There are some things that I do not like about PostgreSQL, permissions allowance per user can be annoying, I have had to work many times on this and it is difficult, it is also relatively slow when I insert and update small databases. The official support does not have telephone or online support, although there are official forums available where users can express their doubts to which other users of the community respond. The syntax of some of your commands or statements may not be intuitive if you do not have a medium level of knowledge in the SQL language. I have had problems migrating from a PostgreSQL version to a higher one. Compatibility is sometimes relative.

Experience with PostgreSQL

5,0 hace 3 años

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

Puntos a favor:

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.

Puntos en contra:

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

PostgreSQL is lighter than Mysql, but it can be a little difficult to set up.

4,0 hace 2 años

Comentarios: PostgreSQL is a powerful and reliable relational database management system, however, its setup and configuration can be complex, and it may not perform optimally in certain high-speed or large-scale data processing scenarios. Despite this, it offers advanced data management and security features, and it supports data replication and backup/recovery

Puntos a favor:

PostgreSQL is a powerful and reliable open-source relational database management system. It offers advanced data management and security features, such as table partitioning, data encryption, and role-based access control. Additionally, it has powerful SQL query language that enables complex and efficient data retrieval, and it supports data transformation through the use of SQL functions and stored procedures. It also supports data replication and backup/recovery. Overall, I highly recommend PostgreSQL for anyone in need of a robust and secure relational database management system

Puntos en contra:

PostgreSQL can be a bit complex to set up and configure, especially when compared to other databases. Additionally, it may not be the best option for certain high-speed or large-scale data processing scenarios. Its performance can also be affected by poor query design and a lack of proper indexing.

PostgreSQL Review

5,0 hace 2 años

Comentarios: I have used Postgres in many projects, it is generally preferred that it is open source. It is also very successful in data consistency. Since it is compatible with many programming languages, it is easier to integrate with another tool or to use when you switch to a different language compared to other RDBMS.

Puntos a favor:

Being open source is a huge plus. It is quite reliable in terms of data consistency.

Puntos en contra:

Memory usage is bad compared to other RDBMS.

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

5,0 hace 3 años

Comentarios: 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.

Puntos a favor:

+ 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)

Puntos en contra:

- 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
