Hello,

I rarely post in this group, but felt input would be important to chime in here from a security aspect.

One of the primary challenges I've seen in the past with migrating to PostgreSQL from Oracle is implementing DISA STIG compliance.  This may or may not be a requirement in your environment.

While there is an Oracle STIG available, there is currently no PostgreSQL STIG - so you will need to engineer much of the required settings/etc. using the Generic Database STIG located at http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/app_security/database/general.html

Fortunately, because PostgreSQL is "secure by default" many of the needed settings are already in place by default. However, you still need documentation to prove this to an auditor.

Thanks,
Ken Buckler

I am currently working for the Government and there is a huge push to move
our Oracle databases to a FOSS database solution. Right now, PostgreSQL is
high on the list.

What we need is a meeting/training session with the main contributors to
Postgres to help facilitate solutions of some of the Oracle functionality to
Postgres. This may be an opportunity to gather Government requirements for
additional Postgres releases. The meeting would be in the Columbia area.

Some of our needs:
Package structure similar to Oracle
Parallel queries
Multi Master Replication

Some of the names I've seen
Tom Lane
Robert Haas
Greg Smith
Simon Riggs

Please let me know if a meeting is possible. There is another in-house
meeting April 17th where I would like to pass on contact information or
needs from the contributors.
