Knew I should have clarified that. :-)
They appear to focus nearly exclusively on PostgreSQL hosting, and not
much else.
Lots of places focus on being hosting providers... AND providing
database access as a feature. pghoster.com appears to be an online
PostgreSQL database provider... AND provides other things as features.
The difference is in their apparent focus. :-)
Well, so it seems. Haven't heard any feedback from end users so I can't
tell for sure if the different focus actually has a tangible benefit or
is in fact for real.
Regards and best wishes,
Justin Clift
