[PostgreSQL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL), often simply Postgres, is an [object-relational database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-relational_database) (ORDBMS). PostgreSQL is [ACID-compliant](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID) and [transactional](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transaction_processing). (see more: [wikipedia:PostgreSQL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL), [PostgreSQL.org](https://www.postgresql.org))
