-----Original Message----- From: Jordan Michaels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2006 9:25 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: MySQL vs PostgreSQL I've long recommended PostgreSQL as a very viable and capable enterprise alternative to MS SQL or MySQL. While there's nothing inherently wrong with either of those databases, PostgreSQL has a much more liberal license. You could pack it up, rebrand it, and sell it right along with your own CFML apps. You can't say that for MS SQL or MySQL. With that in mind, I found this independent test of MySQL 5 vs PostgreSQL 8 to be extremely interesting. I know that all benchmarks are relative, and you'll probably experience different results with your own databases, but the results here are so dramatic it's pretty difficult to argue with.
