Re: PostgreSQL x Oracle

This may or may not help - You can have a look at what oracles say about
DB2 and SQL Server
http://www.oracle.com/ip/deploy/database/oracle9i/

1. Postgres has  features like Store procedures and triggers that are in
Oracle and not in MySql.
2. The Postgresql licensing model (free, with comercial support
available)  is easy to understand compared to Oracle.


It really depends on what you are doing with your application.
If performance is a problem in a particalure area, you might be better
spending the money for the cost of oracle on new hardware.
E.G. Solid state Hard Drive would improve things.
