Welcome to the PostgreSQL playground!

Our playground offers a fun and intuitive way to learn and practice with PostgreSQL — one of the most popular open-source relational databases.

The best part? You don’t have to go through the hassle of setting up and configuring a local development environment. Our playground runs entirely in your browser, so you can start learning immediately, avoiding long setup times or configuration headaches.

What is PostgreSQL?

PostgreSQL (or Postgres for short) is a popular open-source Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) that supports both SQL (relational) and JSON (non-relational) querying.

A relational database is a type of database that stores data in tables, with each table consisting of a set of rows (often called records) and columns. The columns represent the attributes or fields of the data, while the rows represent individual records. The relationships between the tables are established through the use of keys.

PostgreSQL is easy to use, reliable, and has a large community of developers. It is used in production by many technology companies, from startups to large corporations like Apple and Instagram. 

Playground Features

Our playground provides a PostgreSQL environment where you can create and manipulate databases, tables, and other database objects using SQL queries. 

What’s more? It comes preconfigured with a sample dvdrental database so you can get started with PostgreSQL quickly. 

Playground Notes

You can use the playground for 1 hour. If required, you can extend the usage by 15 minutes by clicking on the Extend lab by 15m button, located next to the timer icon.
