Argues that PostgreSQL is the go-to first tool for data warehousing before proprietary systems or MapReduce and shows concrete limits and wins: index-only scans in 9.2 speed covering-index queries, comfort degrades around ~10 terabytes so forks/specialty products matter, use SSDs and tablespaces for parallel I O, prefer COPY or PG bulk loader for fast loads, employ partitioning by inheritance with constraint exclusion for rolling-off data, use unlogged tables/temporary tables for ETL, window functions and materialized summaries for fast analytics.
