Applications standardized on PostgreSQL that need robust async support and observability integration.

Databases guide
Why it appears in the guide: High-quality PostgreSQL data provider for .NET with strong performance and PostgreSQL feature coverage. Trade-off: Provider-specific data type behaviors should be tested when porting from other engines.
