Thread: Postgresql as main database
Hello all,
Good day,
I would like to make Postgresql 8.4 as main database for running three(software) and possible exchanging data.Is it possible? if yes what is the implication in terms of performance?
regards
huu
Hello all,It's certainly possible. Obviously it will need a bigger machine than you would use for just one of the databases.Good day,I would like to make Postgresql 8.4 as main database for running three(software) and possible exchanging data.Is it possible? if yes what is the implication in terms of performance?
Bear in mind that you can't have cross-database queries without using something like the dblink package. I don't know if that affects your "exchanging data".
Oh - and unless you really have no choice in the matter, use 9.1 rather than 8.4 - you will get better performance, new features and it will be supported for longer.

Please give us more information: - What is three(software)? - Can you specify how and with what you would like to exchange data? - The implications of what compared to what? Yours, Laurenz Albe

Yes.
As far as implications on performance, it really depends on specifics and I don't see enough info here to comment.
