Connecting to Postgres

Postgres allows you to store large and sophisticated data safely. It helps developers to build the most complex applications, run administrative tasks and create integral environments.
Postgres is used as the primary data store or data warehouse for many web, mobile, geospatial, and analytics applications.

There are three options to connect to Postgres:

• Creating a Project
• Edit an existing project connection
• Export data from the Export >Run recipe button
