What is PostgreSQL?

An excellent SQL database

PostgreSQL is one of the most widely used open source SQL database implementations. It's open source and is considered highly secure.

Joyful Thoughts

This section shares James Joy’s perspective on this technology as it applies to industrial automation.

PostgreSQL is my favorite SQL database, because:

  • it's extremely easy to install
  • very usable in a containerized environment, like Docker or Kubernetes
  • has excellent performance
  • has a great ecosystem of tools and add-ons, like pgadmin and TimescaleDB

its definitely mygo to for use with Tentacle and Mantle, but also for use with my Ignition projects as well.
