| Summary : PostgreSQL - the Database
|
Description :
DBMS (DataBase Management System) PostgreSQL is the successor
of the relational database system INGRES. It has been developed at
Berkeley, University of California.
The main advantages of the new system are:
- better support of complex objects;
- improved user-side adaption of data types, operators
and access methods;
- integration of active databases (alerts and triggers),
conclusions including forward and backward chaining;
- simplification of dbms code for restore after a crash.
- provision of a design which concatenates the advantages
of optical disks and workstations which consist of many
compound processors and customer-specific VLSI chips;
- avoidance of too many changes according to relational
model.
The query language for this system is SQL.
This system offers you a wide range of additional features such as
transparent history-system, embedding in your own C-routines, shell scripts
and more.
