<p><strong>Q: How does versioning work?</strong><br />
14-
A: PostgreSQL <a href="/support/versioning/">versioning</a> has a two-part number scheme. The first number (e.g. 17) represents the major version, which is a new feature release. The second number represents a patch version, which is a bug / security fix release. For example, "17.1" is the first patch release of PostgreSQL 17. For more information, please see the <a href="/support/versioning/">PostgreSQL versioning</a> page.

A: PostgreSQL supports storing and searching over many data types, including vectors. PostgreSQL has an <a href="/docs/current/arrays.html">array</a> data type that can store multi-dimensional data. PostgreSQL's extension framework lets developers add additional vector functionality into PostgreSQL, including custom indexes that interface into PostgreSQL's memory and storage management systems. There are several extensions that augment PostgreSQL's vector search capabilities.

56+
contributors, companies and organizations. Built on over 35 years of
57+
engineering, starting at the University of California, Berkeley, PostgreSQL
58+
has continued with an unmatched pace of development. PostgreSQL's mature
59+
feature set not only matches top proprietary database systems, but exceeds
60+
them in advanced database features, extensibility, security, and stability.

<h2>Licence</h2>
117+
<p>
118+
PostgreSQL uses the <a href="/about/licence/">PostgreSQL License</a>, a
119+
BSD-like "permissive" license. This <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/postgresql/">OSI-certified license</a>
120+
is widely appreciated as flexible and business-friendly, since it does not
121+
restrict the use of PostgreSQL with commercial and proprietary applications.
122+
Together with multi-company support and public ownership of the code, our
123+
license makes PostgreSQL very popular with vendors wanting to embed a database
124+
in their own products without fear of fees, vendor lock-in, or changes in
125+
licensing terms.
