Re: PostgreSQL and Firebird comparison via digg


Yet another mention of this "Enterprise" thing, without explaining what
it
is...

What's the big deal? In this case, it probably means integration across
heterogeneous applications, databases, protocols etc. Enterprise - a
cocktail of environments. Not your corner-shop Point Of Sale application
running on a standalone PC.

I've asked several times now what Tony thought was enterprisy-
and why he thought Firebird isn't capable.

I know Firebird is running some major (enterprise?) applications,
shuld I make a side-by-side comparison saying, well, PgSQL might
have this and that and Firebird might have this, yet they still both
run fine?

Tony is trying to make a comparison for a specific purpose without
explaining what the purpose would be!
