&lt;li>&lt;strong>Complex Queries&lt;/strong>: Advanced SQL with window functions, CTEs, and JSON support&lt;/li>
&lt;li>&lt;strong>Extensibility&lt;/strong>: Custom functions, operators, and data types&lt;/li>
&lt;li>&lt;strong>Concurrent Access&lt;/strong>: Handles multiple users and applications simultaneously&lt;/li>
&lt;li>&lt;strong>Data Types&lt;/strong>: Rich set of built-in and custom data types&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>

&lt;li>&lt;strong>Parallel Processing&lt;/strong>: Multi-core query execution&lt;/li>
&lt;li>&lt;strong>Connection Pooling&lt;/strong>: Efficient connection management&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
