Though it was published some time ago, I only just came across this article:
http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/oracle/115560 The comparison criteria is primative but PostgreSQL does well. I must say, I was thrown by this comment: "That web site includes a very good installation document. However, post installation and getting started documentation is very limited. I hope that that will change in time." I find this peculiar, considering this: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/tutorial-start.html Now, perhaps the author's conclusion is just bogus but can anyone think of better ways in which we could ease people into PostgreSQL?
