PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS),
derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system.  While
PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types
and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language
with an extended subset of SQL.

PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available.

This package contains the database server programs.
Major enhancements in PostgreSQL 9.3 include: * Add materialized views * Make simple views auto-updatable * Add many features for the JSON data type, including operators and functions to extract elements from JSON values * Implement SQL-standard LATERAL option for FROM-clause subqueries and function calls * Allow foreign data wrappers to support writes (inserts/updates/deletes) on foreign tables * Add a Postgres foreign data wrapper to allow access to other Postgres servers * Add support for event triggers * Add optional ability to checksum data pages and report corruption * Prevent non-key-field row updates from blocking foreign key checks * Greatly reduce System V shared memory requirements 2013-09-10 17:32:32 +02:00			`PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS),`
