PostgreSQL is a sophisticated relational database control system, which can be used on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, Windows) and with a number of scripting languages (Perl, PHP, Python, Java, Ruby). Since it is open-source, it may be freely modified to match the requirements of any developer who works with it. PostgreSQL is also among the most reliable and secure database systems, with much better functionality in managing complex operations compared with similar systems. It's well suited for large-scale apps as a single PostgreSQL database doesn't have a limit for the size, while one table could be up to 32 GB. It isn't a surprise that lots of business, educational and government organizations are already employing PostgreSQL - Skype, the University of California, Berkeley and the US Department of Labor being a few examples.

PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases in Shared Hosting

You can use apps which require PostgreSQL databases with each and every shared hosting that we provide. The amount of databases that you can have at one time ranges and with some plans you will have to get an optional upgrade, while with others the number is between five and unlimited by default. Should you ever require more databases compared to what the plan you've picked offers, you can upgrade this feature through the Upgrades part of your Control Panel. If you have a free slot, you could create a new PostgreSQL database with several mouse clicks in the Databases section of your account and from the same spot you can also access phpPgAdmin - a feature-rich software instrument which will give you total control over all your databases and it shall enable you to export or import an entire database or just part of it easily.

PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you acquire a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you shall be able to set up and manage PostgreSQL databases without difficulty and as part of the standard set of services, not as a paid upgrade. Virtually any script-driven app that needs such a database shall run perfectly as we use a cloud hosting platform and the databases run on a different cluster of servers, not on the same machine in which you will have your website files and emails. Thus, the functionality of your websites will improve drastically as only one sort of processes will run on the web servers. Through our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to access any PostgreSQL database you have inside the account with the popular phpPgAdmin admin client. The latter will permit you to export, import or edit any section of the database through a web-based graphic interface.
