<P>PostgreSQL is designed as a client/server architecture, which |
|
|
|
|
requires separate processes for each client and server, and various |
|
|
|
|
helper processes. Many embedded architectures can support such |
|
|
|
|
requirements. However, if your embedded architecture requires the |
|
|
|
|
database server to run inside the application process, Postgres cannot |
|
|
|
|
be used and a lighter-weight database solution should be selected.</P> |
