Oracle & PostgreSQL DBAs wanted ....

От
Josh Berkus
Дата:
Folks,

... for interview.  I'd like someone, or several someones, who are
currently running both Oracle and PostgreSQL in production and can do a
compare/contrast.   With good things to say about PG, of course.

Yo... I've been an Oracle DBA/developer/consultant for a long time
now.  I'd be glad to answer some questions fer ya.  Things I like
better about PostgreSQL vs. Oracle and vice-versa.

Hehe.  World of Warcraft goes down for 8 hours every week for

(Yes I know it's not Sony)

Josh,

I do part of DBA jobs with Oracle and PG. And since 6 years I develop in parallel applicatiosn using PG and Oracle --- 50% of them use both databases and even "connect" them.

If I can be of use, let me know,

Harald

Well based on the timeline you propsed, I doubt girlfriend exists
anymore... I find that those things take a great deal more time (well in
my case wife) then anything I do.

Not that I am complaining.

That's the beauty of WoW, you can keep a girlfriend if you can get her
hooked on it.

Do they run PostgreSQL? Blizzard was actually founded by two
fraternity brothers...
