I use the MySQL database on the web for the forum and for a news system. I would like to know what are the advantages of pgsql over MySQL. I am entering in the world of databases so i don't know much as I am 16 years old.
For a forum & news system, there's probably zero difference/advantege. :) Unless you get several million hits and tens of thousands of posts every day. In that case, it would be an issue of whether MySQL InnoDB row-locking would perform better or Postgresql's MVCC. (The default MySQL ISAM tables would be cripped due to write-table-locking.)
