Joe is quite right about comparing stats. Unless things are equal across the board (database, tables, data, hardware, software) results will always differ. Another consideration and this may be painful, is consider what Oracle support may be able to offer. Executives do not want to hear the core of their operations went down at 3 am and are still down pending answer to e-mail based support questions. There is benefit when IBM/Oracle can have someone onsite in off hours if that level of support is needed. DBA's/sysadmins/developers are always looking for the best way to accomplish a goal depending on hardware/software/skillset availability. Bean counters are always looking for the best way to accomplish a goal balancing operational costs with profitability. Open source isn't always the most profitable solution. Good profitability is usually a balance between open source and commercial. -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-sql-owner@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-sql-owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of Joe Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 11:36 AM To: Ezequias Rodrigues da Rocha Cc: PostgreSQL; Pgadmin-Support Subject: Re: [SQL] Statistics On Fri, 2007-03-09 at 14:22 -0300, Ezequias Rodrigues da Rocha wrote: > Does someone have statistcs from PostgreSQL ?

First, you may want to post this in the GENERAL or in the PERFORMANCE lists since this isn't really about SQL. Second, you may want to look at the case studies page: http://www.postgresql.org/about/casestudies/. Third, the companies like EnterpriseDB and Pervasive may have some of what you're looking for since they have to measure themselves against the competition. And remember to take any numbers with a large grain of salt, YMMV, etc. Joe ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.orgso that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL This email transmission contains privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entitynamed above.
