I agree with David's comment. The business I work for recently proposed a FOSS
based solution for a client, but were told no FOSS solutions would be
considered. We had a subcontractor offer a support contract for an application
based on the same FOSS components, but with a support contract.

I think some of it is inertia. We've always used Oracle, let's just
keep on using it. The more conservative the IT department is, the
less likely they are to take chances with new technology.
It used to be there was about an 80/20 split between what things you

I've committed a change to filter out
If you are using functions take a look at plProxy. We created it after
finding out that dblink wasn't good enough for us in oltp environments.
There are also some security issues related to dblink that should be given
serious consideration.
As for replication SkyTools and Londiste are alternatives

Thank you.
I was making it way too over-complicated.
Works perfectly

Data Types are basically about value ranges (how many bits do you

That is exactly wrong, at least in the PostgreSQL approach to the ty

I've got a problem I can't get round. I want to declare a refcursor variable in

Hello,
I have a problem with enumerated types in functions parameters.
my enumerated type is (this is a subset)
CREATE TYPE hibridation AS ENUM('none','genus','specie');
function declaration
CREATE FUNCTION ename(text,boolean,text,text RETURNS text AS
'funzioniGDB.so' LANGUAGE C IMMUTABLE;

As part of my log configuration, I log statements that take over 3
seconds. I find this very useful for optimising tables etc. The problem
is that it produces verbatim some very large statements which can create
huge log entries, which are probably responsible themselves for slowing
the system

Oracle handles connecting to multiple databases (even on multiple/remote
computers) fairly seamlessly, PG does not (yet.) Oracle's toolsets (for
things like forms and reports) are much further developed than PG's too,
though there are 3rd party tools that work with both.
