Hallo,

diese Woche war bei heise ein Artikel über ein OpenSource-Directory:

http://www.eosdirectory.com/

Darin werden auch versch. Datenbanken bewertet und MySQL erhält da 5
Sterne , PostgreSQL nur 4.
Ich habe die dann angeschrieben, dass ich diese Sicht nicht Teile,
die Antwort möchte ich euch nicht vorenthalten:

> the "enterprise readiness rating" is not a purely "technical"
> assessment.
> I would agree that from a pure technical point both, MySQL and
> PostgreSQL, are peers. And that is also what you find in the
> "functionality", "maturity" and "community" ratings.
> However, for an Enterprise, professional support, migrations tools,
> spread/distribution/market presence and available expertise in the
> market are important too. And this is where MySQL at least
> historically has outperformed PostgreSQL to some extent. This also
> explains why there's a niche for EnterpriseDB to position its
> professional services and product offerings.
> This is why we came up with one additional "star" for MySQL. It's
> debatable, I agree. And we probably should think of upgrading
> PostgreSQL.
>
> Thank you for your feedback and input.

Grüße
