Postgres’ Growth
DB-Engines Ranking, December 2013
We congratulate MongoDB, PostgreSQL and Cassandra for their extraordinary achievements in 2013….The fact that we
have three open source tools and two NoSQL systems amongst the winners may be an indication of what 2014 has in store
for us.

Postgres: A Proven Track Record
•  Most mature open source DBMS technology
•  Enterprise-class features (built like Oracle, DB2,
SQL Server)
•  Strong, independent community driving rapid
innovation

Implementation Process

How To Contain Costs
Complementary Coexistence:
•  NEW apps on Postgres
•  Move easy-to-migrate existing apps
•  Reassign other licenses to support HW
upgrades and core apps
Reduced Cost & Increased Control:
•  Avoid additional license costs
•  Reduce dependencies on vendors
•  Improve negotiating leverage
•  Lower costs over time

ADVANCED SERVERPOSTGRES PLUS

New Gartner ODBMS Magic Quadrant
Gartner Comments:
•  Community leadership — EnterpriseDB
is the primary contributor to the
PostgreSQL community and is
responsible for many new features of
PostgreSQL, including JSON.
•  Functionality — The functionality of
EnterpriseDB's Postgres Plus has
increased greatly, and with the Oracle
Compatibility Feature is now more than
sufficient to run both mission-critical and
non-mission-critical applications.
•  Stability and compatibility — References
specifically call out compatibility with
Oracle, the stability of the DBMS and
product support as strengths.
