| Psycopg is the most popular PostgreSQL database adapter for |
| the Python programming language. Its main features are the |
| complete implementation of the Python DB API 2.0 specification |
| and the thread safety (several threads can share the same |
| connection). It was designed for heavily multi-threaded |
| applications that create and destroy lots of cursors and make |
| a large number of concurrent INSERTs or UPDATEs. |
| |
| Psycopg 2 is mostly implemented in C as a libpq wrapper, |
| resulting in being both efficient and secure. It features |
| client-side and server-side cursors, asynchronous |
| communication and notifications, COPY support. Many Python |
| types are supported out-of-the-box and adapted to matching |
| PostgreSQL data types; adaptation can be extended and |
| customized thanks to a flexible objects adaptation system. |
| Psycopg 2 is both Unicode and Python 3 friendly. |
