Idk, I'm very pro-PostgreSQL but MySQL/InnoDB used to have that one feature for easy replication via logical DB updates (sending UPDATES to replicas) whereas PostgreSQL support for this was considered lacking, using binary block updates instead if I'm remembering correctly. Also, MySQL, with replication, was considered easier to setup and manage by your average web shop. That may be a thing of the past, though.
Edit: also, best for what? SQLite is, in a way, the perfect DB is you don't have concurrent writes, and I've worked with vector databases (think bitmap indices on steroids) that totally outclass eg. Oracle and PostgreSQL for analytics-heavy workloads
- andruby 7y agoThat used to be the case, but it's not anymore. Postgresql has logical replication built-in since Postgresql 10 (released 2017-10-05). It's really simple to run these days and the docs are great [0] [0] https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/logical-replication.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/logical-replication.html
