PostgreSQL has the json and jsonb (b for binary) data types. You can use these in your table definitions just like any other data type. If you plan to merely store the json data then the json data type is best. If, on the other hand, you plan to do a lot of analysis with the json data inside the PG server, then the jsonb data type is best.
