PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases
Learn the basic differences between Postgre SQL Databases and MySQL databases and see which one is preferable for your website.
PostgreSQL is a feature-rich object-relational database management system, that's famous for being amongst the most secure and dependable systems available on the market. It is cross-platform (Linux, UNIX, Windows, FreeBSD) and cross-language (PHP, Ruby, Java, Perl, Python), that makes it universal and many organizations and corporations are already using it for their products or their own web sites - a few examples are Apple, the US Department of Labor, IMDB.com and Skype. The system is open-source and extremely customizable, not mentioning that it is better than other control systems when it comes to handling complicated operations. Also, the fact that one table may be up to 32 GB in size, while the database size is unlimited, makes PostgreSQL a great choice for scalable applications.

PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases in Shared Hosting
You may use applications which need PostgreSQL databases with each and every
Linux shared hosting that we provide. The number of databases which you can have at one time ranges and with some packages you'll need to get an optional upgrade, while with others the amount is between 5 and unlimited as standard. Provided you ever require more databases than the package you have selected offers, you could upgrade this feature from the Upgrades part of your Control Panel. Provided you have a free slot, you could create a new PostgreSQL database with a few mouse clicks in the Databases section of your account and from the same spot you can also access phpPgAdmin - a feature-rich software tool that will provide you with full control over all of your databases and it'll permit you to export or import an entire database or just a part of it easily.

PostgreSQL 8.3 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you purchase a
semi-dedicated server account from our company, you shall be able to set up and handle PostgreSQL databases easily and as part of the default set of services, not as a paid upgrade. Any script-driven application that needs this type of a database will run properly as we use a cloud hosting platform and the databases run on another cluster of servers, not on the same server where you will have your website files and email messages. This way, the performance of your websites will increase drastically as only one type of processes will run on the machines. Through our custom Hepsia CP, you will be able to log in to any PostgreSQL database which you have in the account with the popular phpPgAdmin admin client. The latter will allow you to export, import or change any section of the database through a web-based graphic interface.
