PostgreSQL
SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is an
international standard in querying and retrieving information
from databases. PostgreSQL is, like MySQL, essentially
an SQL server and database - it responds to requests
for information that are written in SQL. You can communicate
with PostgreSQL using a wide variety of programming
languages, including PHP, Perl, and Python. PostgreSQL
is Open Source software and generally free for commercial
or personal use.

about PostgreSQL :
To add a PostgreSQL database:
-
Click on the PostgreSQL databases
button on the home page.
-
Enter the name of the database in the Db
field.
-
Click on the Add Db button. The
database will be added to the /var/lib/mysql
folder.
You need to create at least one database user
and grant that user permission to use the new database.
