Hi all:I use PGAdmin for a quick conversion of Indexes and Tables from MS-SQL. /access But for other items I either use the command line or EMS PostgreSQL Manager - This is the favorite tool of the developers I have working on various projects.
I am new to PostgreSQL DB, however I have years experience with Oracle 8i and MS SQL. I am in the process to promot PostgreSQL to my future client, due to the cost. I am just wondering if overall people feels frustrated with PostgreSQL or feels happey with it.
I know MySQL is simpiler and cheap. With my years experience with enterprise level DB like Oracle and MS SQL, I just don't feel right with MySQL. I love stored procedure. Sorry to MySQL lovers.
I have the following questions. Please reply me offline, so the mailling list won't get flood. Thanks! 1. What is your favorite GUI tool for PostgreSQL?
We develope web applications and applicationsin Delphi, C++
No.2. In your organization, do you have someone who works as full time PostgreSQL DBA?
My biggest challenge is getting funding to convert other projects completed using MS-SQL to PostgreSQL, but they are coming around.3. What is the biggest challenge you have with PostgreSQL? Administration or Programming?
PostgreSQL has been very easy to program and administer.
4. Overall, do you like PostgreSQL? Would you recommend it over MySQL?Coming from a background where data integrity is a high priority as well as performance - it's PostgrSQL hands down.
It hasn't for over five years.5. How often do your PostgreSQL run into problem or crash? Are most of the problem caused by PostgreSQL itself?
Any suggestion and help are welcome. Thanks!
