Hello, my first post to the list, thank you for this place to ask
questions and get help.

Our management has tasked me with devising a plan to migrate our
existing databases from Oracle to PostgreSQL.  I’m researching and
getting familiar with PostgreSQL before getting a Linux box to start
learning and staging.  I have a long way to go, but it will be fun.

Out of the gate, I can see different PostgreSQL products – PostgreSQL,
PostgreSQLPlus, EnterpriseDB Advanced Server.

So here's a quick rundown.  I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but here's a lot of them.  I've deliberately omitted PostgreSQL forks/versions which are no longer maintained or not commercially available.

Open Source
-----------

PostgreSQL Plus: EnterpriseDB's distribution of PostgreSQL with extra open source tools included in the installer.

It's Postgres Plus, not PostgreSQL plus.

And AFAIK, it was also retired some time ago and doesn't actually exist anymore.

(The advanced servers version does of course, but that's not open source).

I think the only "Plus" product now is their cloud offering?
