Some notable ones:
This is particularly important in SQL: Nested set model in SQL, as it is an efficient way to transverse trees there, since querying parents every time would require multiple disk accesses.
The ASCII art visualizations from stackoverflow.com/questions/192220/what-is-the-most-efficient-elegant-way-to-parse-a-flat-table-into-a-tree/194031#194031 are worth reproducing.
As the sets:
__________________________________________________________________________
| Root 1 |
| ________________________________ ________________________________ |
| | Child 1.1 | | Child 1.2 | |
| | ___________ ___________ | | ___________ ___________ | |
| | | C 1.1.1 | | C 1.1.2 | | | | C 1.2.1 | | C 1.2.2 | | |
1 2 3___________4 5___________6 7 8 9___________10 11__________12 13 14
| |________________________________| |________________________________| |
|__________________________________________________________________________|Consider the following nested set:
0, 8, root
1, 7, mathematics
2, 3, geometry
3, 6, calculus
4, 5, derivative
5, 6, integral
6, 7, algebra
7, 8, physicsEach transaction isolation level specifies what can or cannot happen when two queries are being run in parallel, i.e.: the memory semantics of the system.
Remember that queries can affects thousands of rows, and database systems like PostgreSQL can run multiple such queries at the same time.

Its feature set is insanely large! Just look at stuff like: stackoverflow.com/questions/1986491/sql-split-string-by-space-into-table-in-postgresql/1993058#1993058
If Oracle is the Microsoft of database, Postgres is the Linux, and MySQL (or more precisely MariaDB) is the FreeBSD (i.e. the one that got delayed by legal issues). Except that their software licenses were accidentally swapped.
The only problem with Postgres is its name. PostgreSQL is so unpronounceable and so untypeable that you should just call it "Postgres" like everyone else.
The minimalism, serverlessness/lack of temporary caches/lack of permission management, Hipp's religious obsession with efficiency, the use of their own pure Fossil version control[ref]. Wait, scrap that last one. Pure beauty!
