What is NOTIFY in PostgreSQL?
NOTIFY provides a simple interprocess communication mechanism for a collection of processes accessing the same PostgreSQL database. For example, a database designer could use several different channel names to signal different sorts of changes to a single table.

What is PG check?
pg_isready is a utility for checking the connection status of a PostgreSQL database server. The exit status specifies the result of the connection check.
What does PG pool do?
Pgpool-II is a proxy software that sits between PostgreSQL servers and a PostgreSQL database client.

How to send a notification in PostgreSQL using PG _ notify?
To send a notification you can also use the function pg_notify(text, text). The function takes the channel name as the first argument and the payload as the second. The function is much easier to use than the NOTIFY command if you need to work with non-constant channel names and payloads. Configure and execute a listen/notify sequence from psql:
How big is the payload in PostgreSQL notify?
The default configuration value of payload is less than 8000 bytes in PostgreSQL notify. The notification event includes the channel name of the notification, payload string and notification session servers PID.
How is notify guaranteed to listen on the same channel?
It is also guaranteed that messages from different transactions are delivered in the order in which the transactions committed. It is common for a client that executes NOTIFY to be listening on the same notification channel itself.
What is passed to the client for a notification event?
The information passed to the client for a notification event includes the notification channel name, the notifying session’s server process PID, and the payload string, which is an empty string if it has not been specified.
