We run several versions of PostgreSQL (on shore and at sea) and if you search the archives you will see that we are one of the
first to deploy PostgreSQL in a commercial marine environment (since 2001), and also to develop our own version of DBMirror specifically
tailored for marine/satellite communications, to provide FK-dependency oriented, row grained, Conditional, Asynchronous,
Lazy replication solution.
Since you mention it, this is installed on about 90 vessels at sea, and if we assume 3000 EUR (tickets only) for a
trained person to get on board and perform the upgrade, this amounts to 270,000 EUR.
