Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q. Why is PostgreSQL a good database for FinTech and FinServs?
PostgreSQL is ideal for FinTech and financial institutions because it offers enterprise-level reliability, security, and performance without vendor lock-in. It supports ACID transactions, auditability, encryption, and role-based access, all essential for compliance-heavy environments.
Q. Is PostgreSQL being used by FinTechs or enterprises in the financial industry?
Absolutely. PostgreSQL is trusted by some of the most prominent names in finance and FinTech, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, American Express, Mastercard, Wise, Coinbase, and Revolut. These organizations rely on PostgreSQL for everything from real-time transaction processing and fraud detection to analytics and customer data platforms. Its open-source nature, strong reliability, and ability to meet stringent compliance and uptime requirements make it a natural fit for financial systems.
Q. Can financial institutions meet compliance requirements using PostgreSQL?
Yes. Stormatics helps FinTechs and financial service providers meet compliance requirements like SOC2, PCI DSS, and GDPR by designing PostgreSQL environments with built-in audit logs, secure backups, access controls, and encryption protocols tailored to regulatory standards.
Q. Can PostgreSQL handle high transaction volumes in financial systems?
Yes. PostgreSQL is built to handle high-volume transactional workloads, including real-time payments, fraud detection, and large-scale reporting. Stormatics optimizes PostgreSQL for throughput, latency, and resource usage in production financial environments.
Q.What are the best practices for securing sensitive data in PostgreSQL?
To secure sensitive data in PostgreSQL, use Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), role-based access control (RBAC), SSL connections, and secure key management. Stormatics configures these systems and integrates tools like HashiCorp Vault for enterprise-grade data protection.
