Stéphane, I am not as knowledgeable as Galen, but I wanted to give you some simple advice. First of all like Galen said, Postgres and MySQL can co-exist quite well because their data is by default stored on different locations within the servers, and they both by default use different network ports to communicate.
With that being said, you can often get better performance of Postgres when you use a dedicated server for just Postgres (or just MySQL). So go ahead and set it up that way with both running on the same server. Though if you notices that Postgres or EG runs slow, one thing among other fixes to consider if you need to improve performance is to set up Postgres on its own server. Good luck, Yamil On Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 11:48 AM, Galen Charlton <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > On Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 7:32 AM, Stéphane Dudart <[email protected]> > wrote: >> >> I would like to install Evergreen on a PC on which I already use Mysql for >> other php applications.
