+AMPHP is a collection of event-driven libraries for PHP designed with fibers and concurrency in mind.
+`amphp/postgres` is an asynchronous Postgres client.
+The library implements concurrent querying by transparently distributing queries across a scalable pool of available connections. Either [ext-pgsql](https://secure.php.net/pgsql) (bundled with PHP) or [pecl-pq](https://pecl.php.net/package/pq) are required.

+## Features
+
+- Exposes a non-blocking API for issuing multiple Postgres queries concurrently
+- Transparent connection pooling to overcome Postgres' fundamentally synchronous connection protocol
+- Support for parameterized prepared statements
+- Nested transactions with commit and rollback event hooks
+- Unbuffered results to reduce memory usage for large result sets
+- Support for sending and receiving notifications

 Prepared statements and parameterized queries support named placeholders, as well as `?` and standard numeric (i.e. `$1`) placeholders.
 
+Row values are cast to their corresponding PHP types. For example, integer columns will be an `int` in the result row array.
