A curated list of tools, articles, and examples demonstrating how to use PostgreSQL for a wide variety of use cases instead of adding specialized infrastructure. It catalogs Postgres-based approaches to queues, search, analytics, caching, authorization, and more.

Use cases

• find a postgres alternative to a message queue
• learn how to use postgres for full-text and vector search
• decide whether to replace redis kafka or elasticsearch with postgres
• discover tools built on top of postgres
• reduce infrastructure complexity by consolidating on one database
• find postgres extensions for cron jobs analytics or geospatial data

When to choose

• you want to simplify your stack by consolidating on Postgres
• you need a reference of Postgres-based tools and extensions by category
• you are evaluating whether a specialized datastore can be replaced with Postgres

When to avoid

• you need a tutorial or hands-on codebase rather than a link list
• you already committed to specialized infrastructure like Kafka or Elasticsearch
• you need production support or a maintained software product
