Comment on PostgreSQL vs. MS SQL

Comments

For all its faults, this article does mention one thing about PostgreSQL that I have always been happy with: ease of installation.

Having been through many, many installs of Oracle and MS-SQL in my career, the speed at which you can get a PostgreSQL server up and running with data is simply awesome.

Now setup replication and a solution for hot/fast failover to a new master...

Not having an in the box solution for this is the single biggest thing keeping me off of PostgreSQL...
