thank you! I’m too tired to contribute to a discussion right now 😅
been experimenting with postgres to hopefully move to it eventually.
I use mariadb at the moment and they’ve been releasing pretty unreliable updates in recent years. Galera was nice with it, but had way too many issues.
If you’re looking for a mysql/maria drop-in replacement, then you may also want to look at tidb
postgres can do it, but it’s kind of presented as lego blocks for a HA cluster and often requires making your own tooling if you want sophisticated features like placement index instances and rebalancing
query optimization and the similar structure to SQL server with schemas pulls me towards postgres, got another system using SQL server with upwards of millions of records and need it to be fast and reliable
I’ve been recently introduced to postgres from using supabase (I want a nice API and real-time database functionality, similar to firebase).
And I am more and more impressed at what postgres can do. It feels like cheating!
However, clustering and high availability is something I am working on learning. Certainly, it’s more of a DB Admin type responsibility that I have ever dealt with (which is why I used to use firebase!)
