System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Comprehensive PostgreSQL-specific table design reference covering data types, constraints, indexing, performance patterns, and advanced features to help engineers build robust, scalable schemas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Normalize first (to 3NF) to eliminate redundancy; denormalize only for measured, high-ROI reads where join performance is proven problematic.
  • PK/FK strategy, NOT NULL, DEFAULT usage, indexing guidelines for access paths (including time-series, event logs, and analytic schemas), and partitioning strategies; guidance on JSONB usage.
  • Suitable for design of reference tables, event/log data, time-series, and analytic schemas with ID generation, MVCC considerations, and performance tuning.

Quick Start

Describe your current domain model and the queries you expect to run to generate a PostgreSQL table design plan.
