PostgreSQL is the open-source relational database EZO defaults to for new application builds — mature, standards-compliant, and without per-seat licensing costs.

Migration from MySQL or a legacy database onto PostgreSQL
Performance tuning and indexing for growing datasets

Business impact

No per-seat database licensing cost as the application scales

Frequently asked questions

Why PostgreSQL instead of MySQL for new builds?

Both are solid; we default to PostgreSQL for new work mainly for its stricter standards compliance and stronger handling of complex queries. Where a client's stack already runs MySQL, we build on what's there.
