| 122 | Explicit locking | PostgreSQL uses Multi-version Concurrency Control (MVCC) and thus, sometimes, one has to explicitly lock certain rows or entire table. One has to use LOCK TABLE or SELECT … FOR UPDATE statements for that. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-12-11 15:02 | MIT License | |
| 123 | Extension routines | Find all routines that belong to an extension. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2020-11-06 14:51 | MIT License | |

| 126 | Find all non-foreign key columns of base tables | Find all non-foreign key columns of base tables. Make sure that no foreign key constraint is missing. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2020-11-21 02:59 | MIT License | |

| 128 | Foreign key columns that do not have an integer or varchar type | Find foreign key columns that do not have smallint, integer, bigint, or varchar(n) type. These are the most commonly used types in case of key/foreign key columns. Although the use of other types would be perfectly legal as well, make sure that you have selected the best possible data type for each and every column. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2020-11-16 10:14 | MIT License | |
| 129 | Foreign keys with ON DELETE CASCADE | Find referential constraints (foreign key constraints) that employ ON DELETE CASCADE compensatory action. ON DELETE CASCADE should only be used if it has been created based on a generalization or a composition in the conceptual data model or if the foreign key connects a table that corresponds to the main entity type with a table that corresponds to a non-main entity type. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2020-11-16 10:15 | MIT License | |
| 130 | Foreign keys with ON UPDATE CASCADE | Referential constraints (foreign key constraints) that employ ON UPDATE CASCADE compensatory action. ON UPDATE CASCADE should only be used if the referenced key is a natural key (its values can be changed). | General | system catalog base tables only | 2020-11-15 15:39 | MIT License | |
| 131 | Generated stored base table columns | Find generated stored columns in PostgreSQL base tables. The support of generated columns was added to PostgreSQL 12. These could be used to improve the performance of queries. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA only | 2020-11-06 14:51 | MIT License | |

| 133 | Grantees | Database must be used by users who have minimal set of privileges for performing tasks. The query helps to find out as to whether some user/role other than PUBLIC and a superuser have rights to use tables and routines of the database. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA only | 2020-11-06 14:51 | MIT License | |
| 134 | Index FILLFACTOR has been changed | Find all indexes where FILLFACTOR is not the default. The default is different in case of different index types is different. In case of B-tree indexes the default is 90. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2022-11-02 10:58 | MIT License | |

| 137 | Minimum tuple length required before trying to move long column values into TOAST tables has been changed | Find base tables in case of which toast_tuple_target storage parameter value is not the default value (2040). "Changing this value may not be useful for very short or very long rows. Note that the default setting is often close to optimal, and it is possible that setting this parameter could have negative effects in some cases. " Make sure that the parameter has an optimal value. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2020-11-06 14:51 | MIT License | |

| 140 | Name and description maximum length | Find tables where is both a column for registering name and description. Find the permitted maximum field size in these columns. Take into account that the maximum length may be controlled by using a CHECK constraint. Make sure that the permitted maximum field sizes are sufficiently different. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-24 20:36 | MIT License | |
