What’s so exciting about Postgres? 6 years ago
Features I miss in PostgreSQL:
- Support large number of connections (without external pooling tools) and stop starting a new process per connection (consumes huge amount of resources). Other DBMS works with threads instead of processes and don't have any issues.
- Easy to configure high availability with multiple nodes
Less important:
- Graph capabilities directly in PostgreSQL without extentions or something else
- Running a scheduling tasks directly in PostgreSQL without external tools (for example a script that removes old data from database).
- Supporting Temporal Tables
But overall I like PostgreSQL more than Oracle or SQL Server, even if I miss the above features.
