Thank you for your response. I was asking the questions because when I was evaluating MySQL and PostgreSQL 3 years ago I ended up choosing MySQL due to its community and the rumor about difficulties in horizontal scaling of PostgreSQL even though I really liked PostgreSQL JSON support. I hear PostgreSQL is getting better at scaling horizontally although I do not know how good it is now.
