PostgreSQL is an effective open-source database management system, which has been growing in popularity lately due to its stability and reliability. It includes numerous advanced functions and it can be used to store any type of info. PostgreSQL can be interfaced with lots of programming languages, such as PHP, Python, Perl, Java, C++, Ruby, and many others. Furthermore, it could be used for scalable applications as a single field in a PostgreSQL database could be up to 1 GB, a table - up to 32 Gigabytes, while the database altogether doesn't have a limit for its total size. PostgreSQL also functions more quickly than other SQL management systems when complex operations are performed. Lots of large firms and institutions have already switched to PostgreSQL for their sites or products - Apple, Cisco, the US State Department, the University of California, Berkeley, and many more.
Setting up a new PostgreSQL database takes just several clicks inside the Hepsia Control Panel offered with all our cloud hosting accounts. With some of the packages, PostgreSQL is an optionally available upgrade, you could add to your account without any difficulty, while with others, the number of databases which you can have varies between five and unlimited. When you need more than the default number your package comes with, you could include more databases through the Add Services link inside your Control Panel. We shall also give you the feature-rich phpPgAdmin tool, employed to manage the content of PostgreSQL databases. Every app that uses PostgreSQL will perform excellent on our machines as the databases have a whole cluster of servers to control them as part of our cloud hosting platform.
If you acquire a semi-dedicated server plan through our company, you'll be able to set up and handle PostgreSQL databases without difficulty and as part of the default set of services, not as a paid upgrade. Any script-driven app that needs such a database shall run properly as we use a cloud hosting platform and the databases run on a different cluster of servers, not on the same machine where you will have your site files and email messages. Thus, the performance of your sites will increase considerably as only one kind of processes shall run on the machines. Via our custom Hepsia Control Panel, you shall be able to log in to any PostgreSQL database that you have inside the account with the popular phpPgAdmin admin client. The latter will allow you to export, import or edit any portion of the database via a web-based graphic interface.
