To increase maximum connections in PostgreSQL, open the configuration file, locate the “max_connections” variable in that file, and increase its value according to your needs.

Use the sequence option to specify the start value and the increment value for an IDENTITY column in PostgreSQL.

In PostgreSQL, “CURRVAL()” is a built-in function that returns the most recently retrieved value of the NEXTVAL() function for a specific sequence in the current session.

Yes! A SERIAL column can be overridden by the user by explicitly specifying the column name and corresponding value in the INSERT statement.

In PostgreSQL, to fix the “START value can’t be less than MINVALUE” error, make sure that the starting value of the sequence is equal to or greater than the MINVALUE.

In PostgreSQL, the “currval of sequence is not yet defined in this session” error occurs when the NEXTVAL() function is invoked before the CURRVAL() function.

To fix "nextval: reached minimum value" issue, various solutions like the "Cycle" option, changing the minimum value, etc. are used in Postgres.

To set up an Amazon RDS Aurora database, head into the RDS dashboard and create a database. Configure it by selecting the Aurora PostgreSQL-compatible engine.
