Thread: Looking for 8.3 quotes!
All, We really need at least one quote from a *production* PostgreSQL using company or agency enthusing over one or more of the 8.3 features. Anyone? -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco
At myYearbook.com we're very excited about new features in 8.3 including HOT, shared buffer space for Sequential Scans and integrated tsearch indexing. We feel that these three new features will increase response time, lower database maintenance concerns and lower overall database load. Preliminary testing with the beta is encouraging and we're very much looking forward to the production 8.3 release.

Sure, decrease, etc... I meant increase responsiveness. Feel free to shape, mold, etc as needed to make me sound semi-intelligent ;-)

Folks, So far I have a quote from MyYearBook and one from a Sun exec (we discussed using Sun for the "corporate endorsement" for 8.2, but the quote didn't come through in time, and this still seems good). We can go with just those two, or add a third one if anyone else is available. Maybe an EDB customer, considering how much of their code is in this release? Or one from the team which developed HOT? -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

I don't think I could come up with something that soon. :( Maybe next time. -- Decibel!, aka Jim C.
