I found today that postgres EnterpriseDB supports Amazon EC2. On a shoestring budget EnterpriseDB is just as much an option as Oracle ;-(

So, question is what makes EnterpriseDB more suitable for the cloud than plain vanilla postgreSQL?

Anyone?

With best regards.
Sanjay.

That also was my understanding. But just today a message from AWS
dropped in my inbox:

"....Starting today, you can now launch Amazon EC2 running Windows or
SQL Server instances in the the EU Region,  ...."

So there must be some way to run a relational database with EC2, as
the storage requirements of SQL Server and PostgreSQL are not THAT
different.
