State of PostgreSQL

The 2023 State of PostgreSQL survey is now live! Help us learn more about this community, and check out last year’s main highlights.

PostgreSQL celebrates its 25th birthday this year. For a deeper look into its community, we asked PostgreSQL developer and committer Heikki Linnakangas to comment on the survey results of the newly released State of PostgreSQL 2022 report. Here’s what he had to say.

Performance and tooling are frequently debated in the State of PostgreSQL survey, and this year was no exception. With psql remaining the number one tool for querying and admin among PostgreSQL users, we decided to compile a list of tools— that aren’t psql—to broaden your options.

Community contribution remains a recurrent theme in the State of PostgreSQL survey. As we prepare to release the full report later this month, we dig into some of the results and leave you tips on how to contribute to PostgreSQL and its community.

The results of the third State of PostgreSQL survey are almost out! While you wait for the complete report, read some of the survey’s initial findings, including where PostgreSQL users come from, their experience level, and favorite tools.

We’re surveying the PostgreSQL community for the third year to learn more about how developers use and deploy the open-source database and surface collective trends and opportunities.
