How PostgreSQL and automation can make your website faster and more secure
If you're looking for web maintenance services, you'll probably find many that only "update WordPress plugins". But what happens when your website uses complex databases, custom APIs, or infrastructures outside the standard ecosystem?
At SolveLens, we're not just button installers. We understand what happens in your database, and that's why we use PostgreSQL to manage critical data professionally.
Why PostgreSQL and not MySQL?
MySQL is perfect for simple WordPress websites. But when we talk about critical data, complex transactions, or growing applications, PostgreSQL offers real advantages:
1. Superior data integrity
PostgreSQL guarantees referential integrity more strictly. This means it's much harder for your data to become corrupted or lost in case of an error.
2. Better performance with complex data
When your website grows and queries become more complex, PostgreSQL optimizes queries better and manages load more efficiently.
3. Support for advanced data types
PostgreSQL supports JSON, arrays, and other data types that MySQL doesn't handle as well. This is key for modern applications.
How automation makes the difference
Using PostgreSQL is just one part. The other part is automating the entire maintenance process so you don't have to worry:
- Automatic database backups: Every night, we make a complete dump of PostgreSQL and store it outside the server. If something fails, you can restore in minutes.
- Automatic optimization: The system analyzes slow queries and suggests improvements without you having to do anything.
- Performance monitoring (Pro Plan): We detect performance issues before they affect your users. Available in the Pro Plan (€39/month).
The difference between "button installer" and "systems engineer"
Many web maintenance services only know how to update WordPress plugins. This is fine for simple websites, but what happens when:
- Your website uses a custom database?
- You have APIs that connect to external services?
- You need to optimize complex queries?
- You want to scale without the website breaking?
These are the cases where the difference between a "button installer" and someone who understands PostgreSQL and automation becomes evident.
💡 Real case:
A client had a website with a PostgreSQL database that was growing rapidly. Queries were starting to be slow, and the website was loading slower and slower. After optimizing queries and configuring proper indexes, load time went from 8 seconds to less than 2 seconds. This couldn't have been done by someone who only knows how to update plugins.
Conclusion: Technology that works for you
At SolveLens, we believe technology should work for you, not the other way around. That's why we use PostgreSQL for critical data and automate the entire maintenance process.
We're not just button installers. We understand what happens in your database and make sure everything works silently while you focus on your business.
