as far as I understand it (and I could be wrong on some of this)
* Desktop will support reading if you load the postgresql library
files (that can be downloaded form your ESRI customer care portal).
* Once those are loaded you can read through a definition query data
from postgis into arcgis. I just made a map using arcgis and reading
data from postgis.
* It doesn't support write unless you have SDE for Postgresql - which
isn't postgis. That dives into the world of ArcGIS Server....
ArcGIS supposedly is moving to being able to read/write the geopackage
format which to me opens read/write to PostGIS. BUT if they open read
write for postgis that starts a slow death of SDE....so I don't believe
it ever will (for the foreseeable future).

I'm asked from time to time for an advice which ArcGIS product
supports PostGIS (read/write)?
Even after reading the Esri pages I'm not sure if it's only "ArcGIS
for Server Workgroup" (formerly ArcSDE).
Does it work also with ArcGIS for Desktop Basic (ArcView)?
Yours, S.
