You did not ask that question. I assume you knew before that PostgreSQL is not the tool for your workload.

- kstrauser 9y agoI didn’t ask a question. I love PostgreSQL for small relational stuff (where “small” is up to a few TB) and use it any time it’s appropriate. I wouldn’t classify it as a Big Data store, though. That’s no criticism at all. I wouldn’t use Spark for a transactional DB because it’s not the best tool for the job. Same for PostgreSQL when the dataset grows far beyond what a single instance can reasonably process.
