Small suggested changes to draft of PostgreSQL 9.2 beta announcement
From
Bob.Hetrick@Bull.com
Date:
A couple of small wording revisions and spelling corrections, but no change to the message, so Simon's comments could equally apply to this version. I surrounded the areas I changed with "<" and ">" characters.
=========================
The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announces the beta release of PostgreSQL 9.2, the next release of the world's most advanced relational database system. Version 9.2 will include major improvements in performance,<and both> vertical and horizontal scalability. The PostgreSQL project asks all users to download and begin testing PostgreSQL 9.2 beta as soon as possible.
Major performance and scalability advances ready to be tested in this version include:
* Index-only scans, allowing users to avoid expensive scans of slow-changing base tables
* <Dramatically> improved read-only workload scaling to 64 cores and over 300,000 queries per second
* Cascading replication, supporting rapid failover and geographically distributed standby databases
PostgreSQL 9.2 will also offer many new features for application developers, including:
* JSON data support, permitting building hybrid document-relational databases
* Range types, supporting new types of calendar, time-series and analytic applications
* Multiple <improvements> to make database migrations easier
For a full listing of the ready-to-test features in version 9.2 beta, please see the release notes [LINK].
We depend on our community to test the next <version> in order to guarantee that it is <highly performant> and bug-free. Please download PostgreSQL 9.2 Beta and try it with your workloads and applications as soon as you can, and give feedback to the PostgreSQL developers. More information on how to test and report issues in PostgreSQL is here [LINK].
PostgreSQL 9.2 beta, including binaries and installers for multiple platforms, <can be obtained> from our download page [LINK]. Full documentation of the new version is available online [LINK] and installs with PostgreSQL.
