The original -project continues, but with a very different philosophy - wrapping the postgres instance in a docker container. This project is focused on running the postgres instance directly in the same JVM as the tests. -There are [pros and cons](https://github.com/opentable/otj-pg-embedded/blob/master/README.md#recent-changes-and-the-reasons-behind-them) to both approaches discussed in their README. +project continues, but with a very different philosophy - wrapping the postgres instance in a docker container. +Whereas this project follows the original approach of using native postgres binaries running directly on the target platform without the overhead of virtualization. The library allows embedding PostgreSQL into Java application code with no external dependencies. Excellent for allowing you to unit test with a "real" Postgres without requiring end users to install and set up a database cluster.
