Question
How to use the PostgreSQL droplet with NodeJS?
Hello dear DigitalOcean Community,
I want to use a database for my NginX + NodeJS project that I’m working on. I surely need a SQL and a NoSQL database for my project.
1. What’s the difference between getting a ProstgreSQL droplet vs creating a droplet and installing PostgreSQL myself?
1.1 Is the PostgreSQL droplet faster compared to the “DIY PostgreSQL” droplet?
2. How do I use/connect to my PostgreSQL droplet database using NodeJS?
2.1 Which NodeJS package do I need to use for PostgreSQL?
3 Is it better to install a noSQL Database on the same droplet or on a separate one?
3.1 Will a separate droplet be faster compared to the same droplet? Much faster? One one side we have “CPU usage” and on the other side we have the delay between droplets.
