arduinos don't even have native networking, do they? so you'll need an ethernet adapter, and someone's tcp/ip libraries to even get data off it...
it might be easier to do this on a raspberry pi... they run a small linux system natively, and have ethernet built in, the pi3 has integrated wifi, too.
To talk to postgresql directly, you would need a libpq compiled for arduino, this compilation, while theoretically possible quite likely would be rather tricky.
instead, I'd suggest implementing a front end, perhaps RESTful, that runs on an application server, either on the postgres database server or another nearby server, and have the arduino send the data to it, this front end would format the data and insert it into the postgres database. keep the app server API at a simple application-oriented level ('GET record', 'PUT record' kind of thing...) so the arduino code can be kept quite simple.
