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.

|

run inside the application process, Postgres cannot be used and a
|
||||
lighter-weight database solution should be selected.
