Hi Dennis,
yes I have not only heard of it, and I am using it too ;)
I like the the idea to have Postgres version for DW envoroment ;)
I am not aware of the price of Bizgres MPP (commercial version using shared
nothing architecture), but rumours
say it costs "around" 25k USD/CPU. I suppose the price is further negotiable ;)
, since a sales rep. was insisting on
conference call.
There is a free version of Bizgres which doesn't include Shared nothing
cluster functionality, but still
includes bitmap indexes and improved sort algorithms. In any case it is worth
using/trying it (at least I prefer it
over MySQL).
Bear in mind that Bizgres MPP hat some nasty finctionality limitations (
described in detail in the admon guide ot
Bizgres MPP) in its current version. I hope they will overcome them soon.
Best Regards.
Milen

List,
Has anybody heard of Bizgres? It seems to be PostgreSQL adapted for data
warehousing. The vendor is Greenplum. Sun has
announced a DW Appliance for $250,000 that will include Bizgres. I see where
they are implementing table partitioning.
