PostgreSQL is a high level relational database management system, which can be used on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, Windows) and with a variety of scripting languages (Perl, PHP, Python, Java, Ruby). Because it's open-source, it could be easily modified to suit the requirements of any developer who employs it. PostgreSQL is also amongst the the most reliable and secure database systems, with superior functionality in handling sophisticated procedures compared with similar systems. It's well suited for large-scale apps since a single PostgreSQL database doesn't have a limit for the size, while a single table could be up to 32 Gigabytes. It isn't surprising that a number of business, academic and government organizations are already using PostgreSQL - Skype, the University of California, Berkeley and the US Department of Labor being a few examples.

PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases in Web Hosting

You'll be able to employ PostgreSQL databases with all of the Linux web hosting packages which we offer. Based on the plan that you choose, this function might be available as an optional upgrade or it might be included by default. If you want more PostgreSQL databases in comparison with what the package enables you to have, you may upgrade the number with a couple of clicks from the Add Services/Upgrades section of your Hepsia Internet hosting CP. Since we use a custom cloud platform, all PostgreSQL databases will be managed by their own cluster of web servers and this setup will improve even further the performance of any script apps using them. The highly efficient phpPgAdmin tool, that's available in the Control Panel, allows you to import/export and control any of your databases.
