PostgreSQL Database Development

We design and operate PostgreSQL databases for SaaS products, APIs and AI applications that need reliability without licence costs.

PostgreSQL is a powerful open-source relational database with a strong reputation for correctness and a rich extension ecosystem. It is available as a managed service on every major cloud, and it works very well with .NET through Entity Framework Core.

What we build with PostgreSQL

  • Multi-tenant SaaS databases with row-level security per tenant
  • APIs and back ends for web and mobile apps
  • Hybrid relational and JSON data models for flexible product catalogues
  • Vector search for AI features using the pgvector extension
  • Geospatial queries for logistics and mapping with PostGIS

Why we use it

  • No licence fees – lower running costs, especially as you scale.
  • Rich features – JSONB, full-text search, window functions and extensions.
  • Managed everywhere – Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS and Aurora.
  • AI-ready – store embeddings alongside business data rather than adding a separate vector database.

When PostgreSQL is the right choice

PostgreSQL is an excellent default for new SaaS products, cost-sensitive systems and applications that combine relational data with JSON, geospatial or vector search. If your organisation is standardised on Microsoft tooling or relies on SQL Server-specific reporting, SQL Server may be simpler to operate. We cover both in our SaaS development and cloud application development work.

    Capabilities

    What we build with PostgreSQL

    • Multi-tenant SaaS

      Row-level security and tenant isolation.

    • Vector search

      pgvector for AI retrieval alongside business data.

    • Geospatial data

      PostGIS for routes, zones and location queries.

    Services

    Services using PostgreSQL

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    • Can PostgreSQL replace a dedicated vector database?

      For many applications, yes. The pgvector extension supports similarity search over embeddings stored next to your business data, which simplifies architecture. Very large-scale vector workloads may still justify a specialist store.

    • Can you migrate from SQL Server to PostgreSQL?

      Yes. We convert schemas, rewrite stored procedures where needed, migrate data with validation checks and test application behaviour. The effort depends mostly on how much logic lives in the database.
