the largest and most reliable Postgres service in the world

While working on bunch of new code on Heroku, I attended the live webinar where a discussion was made on learning nuts and bells of Heroku, Postgres database and cloud database, how and when to use it

As they say, with Heroku, Postgres and Cloud Database you never have to worry about servers. Never worry about config files. Never worry about patches. Simply focus on your data with Heroku Postgres.

PostgreSQL is a powerful, reliable, and durable open-source SQL-compliant database. Now available as a fully-managed cloud database from salesforce.com, Heroku Postgres reduces the costs and administrative overhead compared to operating your own database. You can even create a database instance within seconds with a single click.
