Day 30 - Procedural_External Languages
Today, I made significant progress on my Postgres GSoC project by adding a new section to my GitHub repository. I focused on explaining the concepts of external and procedural languages in the Postgres extension system. In this section, I highlighted the benefits of using external languages, such as enhanced expressiveness and language familiarity, along with the advantages of procedural languages, like procedural logic and tight integration with the database. Additionally, I included information about the supported languages in Postgres, such as PL/pgSQL, PL/Python, and PL/Java, and discussed important considerations when working with these languages, such as security concerns and performance trade-offs. By adding this comprehensive section to my GitHub repository, I am providing valuable insights for developers interested in extending Postgres using external and procedural languages and taking a step closer towards achieving my GSoC project goals.
