At the company I work for we are currently in the process of migrating from MSSQL to PostgreSQL. However, we are trickling to a full stack switch to Linux. In the meantime, the Postgres databases have performed extremely well and on balance we are happy with it.
Unfortunately I would argue that at an enterprise level MSSQL is better than Postgres (pure conjecture here). If nothing else, it is way easier to employ MSSQL experts where I live and next to impossible to find Postgres talent. This pretty much means that we are learning by trial and error what the best practices are.

- wulczer 15y agoActually, there's quite a few companies that offer professional PG support, there's a list on the official PostgreSQL page: http://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/ http://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/
- hkarthik 15y agoGreat to hear that your company is forward thinking and willing to make the considerable investment to get off the MS Stack. You might have more luck finding some Oracle DBAs and training them up on PostGres. There's a lot of similarities between the two, and PG/SQL is also very similar to PL/SQL.
