Using SQL at work. How does multiple people connecting work?

Post Body

Hi all,

I'm pondering using SQL at work to store data (I'm in a non-tech field that usually uses excel or google sheets to store data, so this would be a huge step forward). I'm trying to wrap my head around how the whole thing works.

I've taken a bootcamp on PostgresSQL and loved it, and I either want to use that to make a database to store GPS data from athletes, or sqlite.

1) since there would be 2-3 people accessing the data regularly, would postgres be better? I'm guessing if the data is on a server we can all get to it, whereas a sqlite file would be local to my computer.

2) how would I go about creating the database/server to ensure my coworkers would access it?

3) how would my coworkers go about accessing it? would they just need the server name, port, my username and password?

Obviously my understanding of the technical side is clear as mud, but some guidance would be very much appreciated!
