Databases
PostgreSQL is a powerful open-source relational database management system known for standards compliance, extensibility, and support for advanced features like JSON storage, full-text search, and custom data types. It's widely used by backend developers and data engineers to build reliable applications, from startups to large enterprises, and is often praised for its strong consistency guarantees and active open-source community. It competes with databases like MySQL and Oracle in production environments.
