PostgreSQL/Neon/Postgres
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database system with a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance. This integration guide covers PostgreSQL along with Neon, a fully managed serverless PostgreSQL service.
Features
- Full SQL compliance and ACID properties
- Robust data types including JSON/JSONB
- Advanced indexing capabilities
- Excellent scalability and performance
- Built-in replication support
- Rich ecosystem of extensions
Getting Started
Connection Setup
const { Pool } = require('pg')
const pool = new Pool({
user: process.env.POSTGRES_USER,
host: process.env.POSTGRES_HOST,
database: process.env.POSTGRES_DB,
password: process.env.POSTGRES_PASSWORD,
port: process.env.POSTGRES_PORT
})
Basic Operations
// Query example
const result = await pool.query(
'SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = $1',
[true]
)
// Insert example
await pool.query(
'INSERT INTO users(name, email) VALUES($1, $2)',
['John Doe', '[email protected]']
)
Neon Integration
Neon provides serverless PostgreSQL with automatic scaling and branching capabilities:
- Sign up at neon.tech
- Create a new project
- Get connection string
- Use with any PostgreSQL client
Best Practices
- Use connection pooling for better performance
- Implement proper error handling
- Use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection
- Set appropriate timeout values
- Implement retry logic for transient failures
