How does postgres organize files

142 views Asked by At

I read that we have various file organizations in DBMS(googled it) like sorted file organization, sequential file organization, heap file organization, etc.

How does a DBMS know which one to use? Does the developer specify it while creating the table? Or is it fixed for all tables in a DBMS?

I tried googling how i can set the file organization in postgres, but couldn't find any helpful resource. So, i started to wonder if each dbms has a fixed file organization
