Postgres stands out thanks to its rock‑solid reliability and rich feature set—think advanced indexing, robust JSON support, and strong concurrency. It’s open source, highly scalable, and keeps our data queries speedy without locking us into proprietary models.
Alternatives Considered:
MySQL: Popular, but we preferred Postgres’s deeper JSON and indexing capabilities.
MongoDB: Excellent for flexible schemas, but we needed the reliability of SQL.
MariaDB: Similar to MySQL, but Postgres’s community and extension ecosystem won us over.
