### Pros

"Azure managed flexible Postgres instance performance is also very good."

"It's a very powerful DB for the price, it has all the features and customization that any db admin needs."

"Security is very important in IoT. PostgreSQL offers robust security features such as SSL encryption and row-level access controls, ensuring that data is kept safe and secure."

### Cons

"One of the drawback of the PostgreSQL is CPU usage is rather high."

"It was difficult for me to install (the process took about an hour), and if you can't remember your master password you have to delete the application and start over."

"When you are looking for something you want to look up in a manual, it is often difficult to find it and, in the end, you often consult blog articles written by experts instead of the manual."
