Hi I’ve noticed tutorials for setting up MySQL but nothing for PostgreSQL. Is it possible to set PG up on DO? Also I want to launch a Rails 4 app. Are there any special instructions for that? I’ve never done any sys admin.! Not sure about what I need to know or where to find it, just that I’m using pg and rails
