Обсуждение: How to store a linked list in a RDBMS

I have a linked list representing a tree. How do I
store it in the database? Does PGSQL give us any
special procedures to deal with such structures?

Pick up a data structures book and read up on how to implement a
linked list inside an array.  This maps directly to an SQL table with
a sequential primary key.
