Engineering with PostgreSQL
What is PostgreSQL and why does SKN IT use it?
PostgreSQL is the world's most advanced open-source relational database, known for its proven reliability, data integrity, and support for complex queries.
Why PostgreSQL matters.
Postgres is a powerful, object-relational database system that has been in active development for over 30 years. It supports both SQL (relational) and JSON (non-relational) queries, making it one of the most versatile databases for modern application development.
Why SKN IT chooses PostgreSQL
Postgres is our default choice for relational data. Its strict adherence to ACID compliance ensures data integrity, which is critical for the fintech and ERP systems we build. Its excellent support for JSONB also allows us to handle semi-structured data without leaving the relational ecosystem.
