## PostgreSQL Development: FAQ

### Why is PostgreSQL your default database?

PostgreSQL offers the best balance of reliability, features, and performance. Its JSONB support gives NoSQL flexibility when needed, while maintaining full relational capabilities. It's our go-to for Spring Boot and Node.js backends.

### Can PostgreSQL handle high traffic?

Yes. Companies like Instagram, Spotify, and Reddit run PostgreSQL at massive scale. With connection pooling (PgBouncer), read replicas, and partitioning, PostgreSQL handles millions of queries per second.

### PostgreSQL vs MySQL: which is better?

PostgreSQL is superior for complex queries, JSONB data, and advanced features. MySQL is simpler for basic CRUD applications. We recommend PostgreSQL for all new projects due to its versatility and standards compliance.

### Do you offer database optimization services?

Yes, we optimize PostgreSQL performance through query analysis, index tuning, connection pooling, and architecture improvements. We've helped clients reduce query times by 90%+.
