Re: several postgres installations on the same machine?

Hello

PostgreSQL can run with more independent clusters. These clusters can
be related to one binary files or to more (different versions of
postgresql) files. Every cluster has own configuration. Databases
from one cluster share users, locales, etc.

Windows installer build first cluster automatically. Second and others
clusters have to be created manually with statement initdb. These
clusters will share only dll files. If you wont absolutely independent
installations, then change paths and ports.
