Heroku brings JavaScript in your Postgres

Heroku brings JavaScript in your Postgres

The same JavaScript engine that powers the web today is now available in the Heroku database.This is one more step in evolving a data platform to meet all of developers data needs. With a key/value store inside Postgres users gain agility in working with their schema. This agility was further improved with the JSON data type in Postgres 9.2. Geospatial support removed the need to rely on additional tools for building location based apps. And today Heroku continues to expand, going beyond SQL bringing the full power of the V8 JavaScript engine to the Heroku Postgres database. This offering is available immediately in public beta on all production tier databases.Get started here! https://postgres.heroku.com/blog/past/2013/6/5/javascript_in_your_postgres/
