PostgreSQL is beginning to be REQUIRED by many software packages. MySQL4 just isn’t grunty enough to handle some of the larger, more intensive stuff without causing a high I/O Load.

We’re three years down the line now. It’s only getting more necessary every day…
It’d be helpful if you could provide a list of these software packages that require postgreSQL (the more popular the better!) so we can be sure to test them when postgreSQL support is added to the control panel.

We are not only an hosting company but also a IT Services company.
We’ve already done some installations of some very good open source ERP/CRM that use PostGreSql. Indeed, more and more little company want to use Open source CRM/ERP and the majority of these softs use PoSTGreSql
Some of them :
TinyERP
ERP5
Compiere (Java/postgresq, lhttp://www.compiere.org/)
But it’s true that these softs are more professionnal and postgresql is used ibn this case, for most of the case
I don’t think it is the strategic direction that Interworx want to develop, but if it’d be then we could speak about TOMCAT too ! ?
