pro tip for user interface designers:

if you have hundreds of millions of dollars of venture capital and you want to make a user facing data analytics tool of some kind and you think it's reasonable to ask an average human being to type this:

CAST('2023-05-01' AS TIMESTAMP)

to do literally anything with a date or time in your application's user interface, just stop right there. do not pass go, do not collect $200, and do not ever attempt to offer feedback to a UX designer ever again. something is deeply broken inside you that means there are certain mysteries of the universe that even the guys who designed the postgres command line can access that you will never know, and that's ok. You can still live a really rad life.

It can be challenging to run applications with stringent high availability requirements, low latency requests, and ensure there's a reliable database management system powering it all. Luckily, there's #PostgreSQL to the rescue. 🐘

Multi-master distributed #Postgres as a solution is discussed in depth in our technical whitepaper - view it here: https://www.pgedge.com/landing-pages/multi-master-whitepaper

Once thought impossible, the Nexus joins data across all systems so easily that kids raised by wolves could do it.
