PostgreSQL is a feature-rich object-relational database administration system, that's known for being one of the most secure and reliable systems on the market. It's cross-platform (Linux, UNIX, Windows, FreeBSD) and cross-language (PHP, Ruby, Java, Perl, Python), that makes it universal and many organizations and firms are already employing it for their products or their own Internet sites - a few examples are Apple, the US Department of Labor, IMDB.com and Skype. The system is open-source and highly customizable, not mentioning that it is superior to other administration systems in terms of handling complicated operations. In addition, the fact that a particular table may be up to 32 GB in size, while the database size is unlimited, makes PostgreSQL an incredible option for scalable apps.
