PostgreSQL 7.4


PostgreSQL 7.4 11/25/2003 10:24 PM

Last week's release of PostgreSQL 7.4 made a great open source project even better - it even managed to impress hard-core MySQL advocate Jeremy Zawodny. The detailed release notes show that most of the improvements were with regards to performance, but the thing that really caught my eye was tsearch2, the new full text indexing suite. A bit of digging brought up the CVS tree for the new module, which in turn lead me to this tutorial style overview of its capabilities.

I make extensive use of MySQL's built in full text indexing on this blog for both the search engine and the "related entries" lists, so it's a feature I've really been missing in my experiments with PostgreSQL.

But hang on to your horses - difficult though it may be to believe, PHP does include support for a number of other databases. One of them is PostgreSQL, the *other* open-source database - and this article tells you everything you need to know about using it with PHP.

Did you know that you can connect the OpenOffice.org office suite to a PostgreSQL database? Maybe your database contains valuable customer or inventory information that your staff could use to generate a personalized sales letter. With OpenOffice.org Writer, and a connection to your PostgreSQL database, you can do just that for each customer. I'm sure you can think of many other uses for such a connection.

PostgreSQL 8.0.2 (Stable branch) 04/12/2005 11:54 PM
PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. While PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language with an extended subset of SQL.
Changes:
This release includes a new, patent-free buffer replacement policy (2Q) that replaces a patent-pending algorithm from IBM (ARC). Write performance on Windows has been significantly improved. The major version number of the libpq library has been incremented, and a number of bugs have been fixed.

Linux Productivity Magazine featured PostgreSQL in their January 2003 issue. It's a very nice introduction to PostgreSQL that i wished i had read when i first tried the database out. Most of the article is great (from a geekish point of view), except for the following:

TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) is all the rage these days, so consider the following PostgreSQL assets:

  • Zero purchase cost
  • Zero barrier to entry
  • Zero license compliance tracking cost
  • Legal to copy throughout the enterprise
  • Voluminous documentation online at no cost
  • Several books on Postgres are available
  • Community support via Postgres mailing lists
  • Zero license cost for evaluation -- you can easily back out of Postgres
  • Postgres knowledgeable contractors can be cheaper than Oracle or DB2 gurus
-- Steve Litt

The last point is most interesting. Open source software is free, but skills are not. From a professional viewpoint, it makes little sense for a really smart contractor to learn PostgreSQL if DB2 or Oracle skills pay better and are in demand. PostgreSQL advocates should avoid such statements, which to me is equivalent to saying You pay peanuts, you get postgresql consultants...
