It is the method or technique for the search of a single or collection of computer-stored documents in a full-text database. It can be easily differentiated from searches based on the metadata or on parts of the original texts represented in databases.
Although PostgreSQL is not as advanced as compared to the Elasticsearch and SOLR, both of these are specific for full-text search tools. Whereas in PostgreSQL, full-text search is only a feature and it is a pretty good one.

PostgreSQL will not support clustering by using shared storage on SCSI, SAN, iSCSI volume, or other shared media. Such "RAC-style" clustering is not supported. Only the replicated clustering is supported at present.

There is no better way to query a database other than the present one. As PostgreSQL loads database-specific system catalogs, we don't know how a cross-database query should behave. contrib/dblink enables cross-database queries with function calls. Of course, a customer can also establish concurrent connections to various databases and merge client-side results.

Once the BRIN index has been installed, PostgreSQL will be able to select the minimum and maximum values by reading the selected column for each 8k page of data saved. After that, PostgreSQL will store the page number, the maximum and minimum values of the selected column in the BRIN indexes.

This refers to the technique or method of searching for a single or a collection of documents stored on a computer in a full-text database. It may be simply distinguished from searches according to metadata or portions of the original texts depicted in the databases. While PostgreSQL is not as advanced as SOLR and Elasticsearch, these two tools are specific to full-text search. While in PostgreSQL, the full-text search is just a feature, and it's quite good.

At the cost of speed, PostgreSQL was built to be expandable and compatible. PostgreSQL may not suit you if your project needs the fastest read operations possible.
Due to its wide range of features and its high adherence to the SQL standard, Postgres may be excessive for simple database configurations. MySQL is the practical choice for operations like read-heavy where we need speed.
While PostgreSQL provides solid support for replication, it is always a relatively new functionality, and certain configurations like primary architecture are only possible with expansions. Replication is an advanced feature of MySQL. Most users feel that replicating MySQL is easier to implement, especially for those without the required experience in administering databases and systems.

Functions are an important part of running the code on the server everywhere. Some languages used for programming functions are PL/pgSQL, a native PostgreSQL language, as well as other scripting languages such as Perl, PHP, Python, etc. A statistical language called PL/R can also be used to make functions more efficient.

MySQL is the "user-friendly, web developer" database, while PostgreSQL is the "feature-rich and standards-compliant" database. PostgreSQL is freely licensed and part of its community; MySQL is GPL licensed and belongs to Oracle. Beyond this, every user of the database should make their own assessment; free software facilitates comparisons.

In PostgreSQL, table partitioning is a process in which a large table is divided into smaller pieces called partitions. PostgreSQL supports ranges and lists partitioning through table inheritance. Users must create every partition like a child table in the main table.

In PostgreSQL, an Inverted file is basically an index data structure used for mapping content to its location to a database file, within a document, or in sets of documents.
It is usually composed of all the distinct words found in a text and a list containing the occurrences of a word in the text.
The inverted file is widely used in a data structure for document retrieval systems in supporting a full-text search.

PostgreSQL tokens are the building blocks for any source code. They include a lot of special character symbols. A token represents an identifier, a quoted identifier, a keyword, a special character symbol or a literal symbol.

Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC) is an advanced method used in PostgreSQL for improving the performance of a database in a multi-user environment. Unlike lock models in other databases, PostgreSQL uses a multi-version environment in which locks that are acquired for reading data don’t conflict with locks acquired for writing the data. Hence, making the process more compartmentalized and a lot faster.

PostgreSQL has no maximum database size, so users can put unlimited data into it. But, the table, row, and field size are limited. The row and indexes are also universal for its users.
PostgreSQL usually stores its desk facts in chunks of 8KB. The quantity of these blocks is confined to a 32-bit signed integer, giving the most desk dimension of 16TB.

Token are the building blocks of any source code. They are known to comprise many of the special character symbols. These can be regarded as constant, quoted identifiers, other identifiers, and keywords. Tokens which are keywords, consist of pre-defined SQL commands and meanings. Identifiers are used to represent variable names like columns, tables etc.

CTIDs is a field, which exists in every PostgreSQL table and is known to identify specific physical rows according to their block and offset positions within a particular table. They are used by index entries to point to physical rows. It is unique for each record in the table and easily denotes the location of a tuple. A logical row’s CTID changes when it is updated, so the CTID cannot be used as a long-term row identifier. However, it is sometimes useful to identify a row within a transaction when no competing update is expected.

* Numeric (Integer, Floating-point)
* Temporal (date, time, timestamp, interval)
* Array (array string, number)
* JSON
* hstore (key-value pair)

PostgreSQL offers a number of index types: Hash, B-tree, GiST, SP-GiST, BRIN and GIN. Each type of index will use a different algorithm which is most suitable for different types of queries. CREATE INDEX will create B-tree indexes by default that match the most popular situations. Users can set their PostgreSQL indexes as well.

String constant contains a sequence of characters bound by single quotes. This feature is used during insertion of a character or passing character to database objects. PostgreSQL allows the usage of single quotes but embedded by a C style backslash. This feature is important in parsing data.

PostgreSQL doesn't have Stored Procedures directly.
However, by working with Object Relational Database Management Systems i.e., PostgreSQL have not necessarily the function Stored Procedure (SP) defined, as we can find in most of other types of DBMS.
They are in fact, small sets of code stored at server side of a database.
On the contrary, to what happens in other databases, the Stored Procedures in PostgreSQL are defined as FUNCTIONS, as well as triggers, making this feature a bit more complicated, depending on its return type. These functions are important and variant in features, but created equal. Working with the creation of these small snippets of code is a good practice because it can leave quite complicated code acting on the server-side that can be used by multiple apps, thus avoiding the need to replicate them in each of these apps.

Since no one type of clustering satisfies all needs, they have several different clustering tools which take various clustering approaches. The open source projects PostgresXC and Postgres-XL are available, as well as open source forks and proprietary tools such as Greenplum Database, Citus Data and several others.
Also, PostgreSQL is supported by filesystem-based clustering systems for failover, including ones from Red Hat, Microsoft, Veritas and Oracle.

There is no way to query a db other than the existing database. Because PostgreSQL loads database specific system catalogs, it is uncertain how a cross-database query should even behave for Postgres.
However, contrib or dblink allows cross-database queries using function calls. Nevertheless, a client can also make simultaneous connections to different databases and merge the results on the client side.

Postgres’ write ahead logging increases the reliability (in a way resiliency) of the db by logging changes before any changes or updates to the database. This provides log of database in case of a db crash and this also helps to start the work from the point it was discontinued. This it is useful for crash recovery.
