Hello, please can some one share experience on postgres sql :)
While I don't use it myself, nor have I used it at work anywhere, it's
certainly in use by the NHS in Scotland.
I'm currently looking at it as I'm between Oracle contracts at the
moment and there do appear to be plenty of jobs asking for it, so it
must be in use by some people/companies.
I did hear a while back that the NHS had ripped Oracle out and replaced
it with PostgreSQL but I might be mistaken on that as I cannot find any
proper references.
PostgreSQL have a list of featured customers at
http://www.postgresql.org/about/users/ and back in 2008, Yahoo was
apparently running a 2 Petabyte database on it.

Good luck.
