Speaking from a commercial perspective. I have had, in the last 60 days
over a dozen inquiries of how PostgreSQL 8.0 on WINDOWS compares to
MSSQL. The specific question
topics have been:
1. Reliability
2. Performance
3. High Availability
4. Features
Anything that we can do, within reason to help the migration from MSSQL
to PostgreSQL "is a good thing" (tm).
Sincerely,
