Thread: Oracle - PostgreSQL comparison
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi all,
I know it's been talked too much on pgsql-* lists; but I need a Oracle -
PostgreSQL comparison.
I searched through the archives and I have some items now. What I'm
exactly looking forward is a "web page" or "document" about this. AFAIR,
we have some for MySQL.
Regards,

Hello, That is a little vague. Oracle and PostgreSQL although very similar are also very different and serve different markets and needs. Is there something specific you are looking for besides the fact that PostgreSQL doesn't cost 40k?

* I've prepared a "How to Migrate from Oracle to PostgreSQL" document. *
I believe that I may have missed some points while comparing them. That's
why I'm looking for some documents or web pages. There is nothing specifis
at all.
BTW: Money is not everything. I'd choose PostgreSQL if both of them were
free or both of'em costed 40K. I'm not sure what I should do, if both were
open source ;)
