Use PostgREST and HTMX to Build RESTful APIs from PostgreSQL Databases
PostgREST is a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database into a RESTful API using the database's structural constraints and permissions to define the API's endpoints and operations. In this tutorial, you will create a simple note-taking app by leveraging PostgREST to construct a RESTful API for the app and using htmx to deliver HTML content.

We built our customer data warehouse all on Postgres
You might find some info in the docs of PostgREST [1] or in the previous discussions on HN about it [2].
For the versioning, I just have a git repo where I keep every role, schema, table, view, function, trigger, etc. definitions. Every time I change something in the database I first change it in the git repo too to have an history.

Don't know if you would call this a "program" but PostgREST is written is Haskell too.

2024 Web Development Wish List
Despite what most people think, postgREST is incredibly powerful. I know, I am a sponsor. I specifically am trying to get nested mutation built-in. Currently, queries are probably more powerful than Hasura or Prisma, but most people don't know this.

Google Cloud Spanner is now half the cost of Amazon DynamoDB
Don't forget PostgreSQL extensions. For something like a chat log, TimescaleDB (https://www.timescale.com/) can be surprisingly efficient. It will handle partitioning for you, with additional features like data reordering, compression, and retention policies.

Ask HN: It's 2023, how do you choose between MySQL and Postgres?
Friends don't let their friends choose Mysql :)
A super long time ago (decades) when I was using Oracle regularly I had to make a decision on which way to go. Although Mysql then had the mindshare I thought that Postgres was more similar to Oracle, more standards compliant, and more of a real enterprise type of DB. The rumor was also that Postgres was heavier than MySQL. Too many horror stories of lost data (MyIsam), bad transactions (MyIsam lacks transaction integrity), and the number of Mysql gotchas being a really long list influenced me.
In time I actually found out that I had underestimated one of the most important attributes of Postgres that was a huge strength over Mysql: the power of community. Because Postgres has a really superb community that can be found on Libera Chat and elsewhere, and they are very willing to help out, I think Postgres has a huge advantage over Mysql. RhodiumToad [Andrew Gierth] https://github.com/RhodiumToad & davidfetter [David Fetter] https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidfetter are incredibly helpful folks.
I don't know that Postgres' licensing made a huge difference or not but my perception is that there are a ton of 3rd party products based on Postgres but customized to specific DB needs because of the more liberalness of the PG license which is MIT/BSD derived https://www.postgresql.org/about/licence/
Some of the PG based 3rd party DBs:
Enterprise DB https://www.enterprisedb.com/ - general purpose PG with some variants
Greenplum https://greenplum.org/ - Data warehousing
Crunchydata https://www.crunchydata.com/products/hardened-postgres - high security Postgres for regulated environments
Citus https://www.citusdata.com - Distributed DB & Columnar
Timescale https://www.timescale.com/
Why Choose PG today?
If you want better ACID: Postgres
If you want more compliant SQL: Postgres
If you want more customizability to a variety of use-cases: Postgres using a variant
If you want the flexibility of using NOSQL at times: Postgres
If you want more product knowledge reusability for other backend products: Postgres

Day 23: CI using timescaledb a PostgreSQL based time series database
Slowly I understood that instead of a vanilla PostgreSQL database I need to use to use Timescale which is based on PostgreSQL. I am sure others would have come to this conclusion much faster than I did.

Is Postgresql integration well supported in Julia?
Good question... haha I haven't really considered it. I'm no too versed in this domain and so the whole project will be a learning experience. One of the things is that it will include time-series harvest data. I was searching around for ways to implement this and found solutions like TimescaleDB and InfluxDB. Seems like also there are just some plugins that can sit on top of PostgreSQL.
What are some alternatives?
Hasura - Blazing fast, instant realtime GraphQL APIs on your DB with fine grained access control, also trigger webhooks on database events.
supabase - The open source Firebase alternative.
ClickHouse - ClickHouse® is a free analytics DBMS for big data
promscale - [DEPRECATED] Promscale is a unified metric and trace observability backend for Prometheus, Jaeger and OpenTelemetry built on PostgreSQL and TimescaleDB.
TDengine - TDengine is an open source, high-performance, cloud native time-series database optimized for Internet of Things (IoT), Connected Cars, Industrial IoT and DevOps.
GORM - The fantastic ORM library for Golang, aims to be developer friendly
temporal_tables - Temporal Tables PostgreSQL Extension
postgres-websockets - PostgreSQL + Websockets
pgbouncer - lightweight connection pooler for PostgreSQL
Appwrite - Build like a team of hundreds_
Telegraf - The plugin-driven server agent for collecting & reporting metrics.
gotrue - An SWT based API for managing users and issuing SWT tokens.
