Обсуждение: Article involving Postgresql
I got a magazine dropped on my desk just now called Storage Management Solutions. On the cover they have a listing for "Open Source Databases".They talk about Postgresql, MySQL and Interbase. Just a snippet of the article: "In recent benchmark testing, the open source databases performed well against the two leading proprietary database vendors. Xperts, Inc. ran the industry-standard ANSI SQL Standard Scalable and Portable (AS3AP), a rudimentary test that measures raw speed and scalability, against the three leading open source, and the two leading commercial applications. Postgresql performed an average of four to five times faster than every other database measured. MySQL and Interbase also demonstrated impressive speeds, outperforming the proprietary applications with small numbers of users. But speed, of course, isn't everything." If I see any other interesting comments in the article, I'll pass them along. Adam Lang Systems Engineer Rutgers Casualty Insurance Company http://www.rutgersinsurance.com

I don't think the author is totally unbiased but Ned Lilly should know the differences between the top databases. ;-) Rod
