Depending on at which point these transactions are started and committed and the isolation level of the transaction this would either result in {"a": 1, "b", 22}, failure at step 3, failure at step 4 or failure when one

HStore and especially JSON are useful because they allow you to store complex data structures fairly easily. Do you have something that contains a number of somethings that contain a number of somethings that contain a number of somethings?

It’s really not that bad. WiX is actually pretty decent, definitely not a “disaster”. It might look more frightening than InstallShield because you don’t get a nice UI that allows you to set up an installer with a few clicks, but I mean, we

Meh. It’s a post-socialist corrupt shithole, not North Korea or Nazi Germany. Some people will lose their jobs, which they kind of deserve for being incompetent anyway. That’s all that will happen.
