Its advantages over other databases are obvious: PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system, which, of course, gives it some advantages. Moreover, Postgres supports numeric, floating point, text, boolean and other data types. PostgreSQL boasts support for uuid, money, enumerated, geometric, binary types, network addresses, bit strings, text search, xml, json, arrays, composite types and ranges, as well as some internal types for identifying objects and the location of logs.
