One of the other nice things about Postgres is the pretty much annual release of a new version. 9.2 should apparently hit beta in the next week or so, which will bring some cool new features : http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2012-05/msg00344.php http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2012-05/msg0034... .
- diminish 14y agoAre there any reasons not to use postgres, as a replacement for mysql?
- timc3 14y agoIf you have a DBA that knows MySQL extremely well and doesn't need to change. If you have a existing system running well, and the future roadmap of your development doesn't make staying with MySQL difficult. I am totally a Postgres fan, but there are many sensible reasons not to upset the apple cart.
- vidarh 14y agoIf you use multi-master replication, MySQL Cluster, or depend on properties of one of the alternative storage engines would be my big ones.
- jeltz 14y agoHopefully PostgreSQL-XC might fix this lack of good multi-master replciation in a couple of years. PostgreSQL-XC 1.0 will be released soon.
