## Problem

A growth-stage company runs three workloads through one Postgres: a mobile inventory display, a daily revenue dashboard, and an analyst exploring three years of mobile event JSON. All three compete for the same compute. Apply the section's storage-selection question tree and route each workload to the shape its access pattern actually needs.
