Good to hear that (I hope that even though English is not my native language I understand properly posts in this thread). I am convinced, that all of You will be pround of the new solution like a "heart bit" for PostgreSQL. May be it is too poetic but considering cron or pgAgent instead real job manager is like considering defibrillator instead a real heart. Currently, especially in web applications, the idea is not where to store a data but how a data can flow and how *fast*. "It's pretty interesting to think of all the places you could go with it." - in fact it is :) Best regards, Artur -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
