PostgreSQL是一個複雜的軟體專案，管理專案是很困難的。而我們發現 PostgreSQL 的許多強化功能可以與核心專案分開進行更高效率的研發。

There are several administration tools available for PostgreSQL. The most popular is pgAdmin III, and there are several commercially available ones as well.

PostgreSQL is designed to be easily extensible. For this reason, extensions loaded into the database can function just like features that are built in. The contrib/ directory shipped with the source code contains several extensions, which are described in Appendix F. Other extensions are developed independently, like PostGIS. Even PostgreSQL replication solutions can be developed externally. For example, Slony-I is a popular master/standby replication solution that is developed independently from the core project.
