I’m going to demonstrate connectivity to an EDB Postgres Advanced Server from 64-bit Windows 10, but this is just as applicable to Postgres Community Edition and other Postgres-based databases too.īefore I connected to the database, I created an instance on port 5444, adjusted the security settings to allow external connections, and created a pgbench database, a pgbench superuser, and ran the pgbench executable as follows: The good news is that even if you use an IDE for another database, chances are that you will be able to use it for Postgres as well. Many database designers, developers and administrators use IDEs (Integrated Development Environment) as tools to access the internals of their database estate. There are many ways to access Postgres databases. Which means you are going to need a design and development environment in which to do so. Well, the first thing you are going to do (once you have secured your new database) is access it, and use it to store and distribute your data. So, you’ve installed your Postgres database, whether Community Edition, EDB Postgres Advanced Server or one of many other cloud, container, or Database as a Service offerings out there.
