I wonder if they're finally switching from Oracle to Postgres. I know that their Oracle clusters are a significant portion of their bottom line. Alternatively, I wonder if this is a replacement for their new Hbase cluster for feeds. There seem to be lots of projects at SFDC that could be supported by Postgresql. It's going to be great though, considering the community might get some great tools from this.

When I was still at SFDC (January), postgres was being cautiously looked into as an Oracle alternative (along with HBase for certain parts, which has definitely been happening). Glad to see they are going for it.
