Why PostgreSQL for this
We hold no reseller relationships, which is the only thing that makes a vendor recommendation worth reading. Most advice in this market is distribution wearing a consulting badge.
PostgreSQL is strongest at it handles far more workload than teams expect, with one operational model. For it that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: genuine analytical workloads past a certain scale belong in a warehouse. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions
Do you resell any of the products you recommend?
No. We take no commission from any vendor, and we disclose any relationship that could colour a recommendation. That independence is the product.
Will you also implement it?
We can, and you are not obliged to use us. The advice stands alone, and we would rather you tested it against other quotes.
How long does an assessment take?
Two to four weeks for most organisations. Long enough to be thorough, short enough that findings are still current when you act.
Alternatives for it
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
