An overview of a book about using PostgreSQL in application development. It addresses how much work a database should handle, whether an ORM is always the best option, maintaining SQL, and the role of PostgreSQL as remote storage with ACID properties.

## Source excerpt

I am writing a book to share my knowledge about how to best use PostgreSQL as an application developer. If you've evered ask yourself how much should I have my database do for me? this book is for you. If you're thinking that using an ORM might not always be the best option out there, if sometimes you wish SQL was easier to maintain than those concatenated strings with conditionals, then this book can't wait for you!
