Yes, you require a license.  However, luckily for you, the license is
provided for any purpose, without fee, and without a written agreement.
The COPYRIGHT file in the source distribution contains the details.
You can use the software standalone or in cluster configuration, as you
see fit.  In short, you don't need to worry about it.

However, this doesn't necessarily apply to other software packages
derived from PostgreSQL itself, or those that work in conjunction with
it, such as Postgres extensions, admin interfaces, GUIs, monitoring
packages, etc.  You'll have to seek clarification on each such software
package that you intend to use.
