Since I participate in the RC-72 contest of Distributed.net, I regularly visit the stats pages. A while ago, the guys switched from Sybase to PostgreSQL as their database of choice. On the statspages the PostgreSQL-logo is displayed, so I clicked it recently.
PostgreSQL looks like a good choice if you are, like me, accustomed to Oracle. I hope version 7.5 will bring a decent Windows version, since Cygwin is not something I like very much. But tablespaces, replication, foreign-keys and subselects are things I do like. I’ll let you guys know when I installed it, and what my findings are.
