I've been professionally focused on PostgreSQL based works for the last 5 years. At the highest point of the BigData hype I sometimes felt a little bit off-track, because I never got the time to investigate NoSQL solutions...
Only recently did I realize that being focused on actual data and how to process it inside PostgreSQL was maybe the best way I could spend my working time. I really can't say what's the best part of PostgreSQL, the hyperactive community, the rock solid and clear documentation or the constant roll-out of efficient, non-disruptive, user-focused features...

I'm always amazed by the PG community - it seems like such a constructive place.
Those patches are absolutely insane. Makes you remember how much hard work goes into building the software you use on a day to day basis.

I could see good amount of quality engineering there, kudos.
