About
Open-source relational database. The most popular open-source SQL database. JSON, full-text search, extensions (pg_vector, PostGIS), and rock-solid reliability.
What it does
This is database software that stores and organizes information for applications, letting developers save, search, and update data reliably. It has been actively maintained for decades by a global community of contributors.
Stated on the product site
- License model

- Distribution
- The software is obtained by downloading it from an official download page rather than accessed as a hosted service.
- Governance
- Releases and updates are produced and issued by a named community organization rather than a single commercial vendor.
- Community support
- Support and discussion happen through public mailing lists rather than a dedicated vendor support line.

- The page does not specify which programming languages, operating systems, or client tools are officially supported for connecting to the database.
