Hi all, I'm regularly reading that Postgres is often used with containers and in cloud environments these days, even on some not too powerful NAS. What are the lowest resource setups you know of or even host Postgres successfully with yourself? It's especially about RAM and CPU, if you needed to e.g. configure anything special to make things somewhat work in your stripped down environment etc. Is there any point at which one is most likely forced to switch to more specialized embedded databases like SQLite? E.g. because Postgres requires a higher amount of resources because of it's architecture? Or could Postgres in theory be used everywhere where SQLite is used as well, as long as one is allowed to e.g. start an additional process? I would like to know if there's any realistic chance to use Postgres in a low resources environment with little amount of RAM and somewhat slow CPU like the following: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1-Datasheet-60001590b.pdf http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/SAMA5D2-Series-Data-sheet-ds60001476F.pdf One point is that I most likely need somewhat concurrent access to the data, because of having web services exposing that data to clients, daemons storing data locally only etc. OTOH, the number of concurrent accessed won't be too high, there won't be too much load most of the time. Things heavily depend on actual users of the device. Postgres' architecture seems to better fit that use case than e.g. SQLite. Thanks for sharing you experiences and suggestions!
