Best Answer

Computer based information systems are now seen as a critical part of information management and a way of providing companies an edge over their competitors. If your staff are spending a lot of their time trying to find documents, struggling with version control, have no idea of audit trails/archiving, or you have no idea who is accessing you data and potentially walking away with it to your competitors, then I would say that it will not be long before your competitors with information systems will have the edge over you. If you have no way of assessing data integrity or the increasing volumes of electronic data that are coming into/being generated/being distributed by your business, no archiving systems and no disaster recovery, then you may well be on your way to bankruptcy without even knowing it.

What information is stored in the system catalogs?

The system catalogs are the place where a relational database management system stores schema metadata, such as information about tables and columns, and internal bookkeeping information. PostgreSQL's system catalogs are regular tables. You can drop and recreate these tables, add columns to them, and insert and update values. However, this can cause severe system damage and data loss. Normally one never has to change the system catalogs by hand; there are always SQL commands to do that. (For example, CREATE DATABASE both inserts a row into the pg_database catalog and creates the database on disk.) However, there are some exceptions for esoteric operations, such as adding index access methods.
