PostgreSQL is a good choice when it comes to object-relational database management system, being one of the strongest competitors for Microsoft SQL Server, Firebird, Oracle, Sybase.

PostgreSQL for Windows is a software for managing relational database and Ordbms objects that will run on your operating system. It is recognized worldwide for its stability and its programming possibilities particularly extensive in the engine of your database using the PL / pgSQL.

PostgreSQL is the main competitor for MySQL, Firebird, Oracle, Sybase or Microsoft SQL Server and it is fully ACID compliant and has support for foreign keys, joins, views, triggers, and stored procedures. It also includes the windowing functions, common table expressions and recursive joins a parallel restore, consolidated hash indexes, support for SSL certificates for user authentication, routines statistics function, etc.It allows to manage tables, libraries for many languages to access records from programs written in Java (JDBC), C + + / C, Perl or Tcl / Tk.ODBC API allows any application that supports this type of interface to access PostgreSQL databases.

PostgreSQL is highly customizable running stored procedures in more than a dozen programming languages, including Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, Tcl, C/C++,and its own PL/pgSQL, which is similar to Oracle's PL/SQL.
