Hi,

I'm interested in deploying PostgreSQL in a production application but
I'd like to know if the following features are available:
- dblinks
- partition tables

If they are not, are they planned for a (near) future release?

Thanks,
Mark

Yes, see the dblink contrib module.

- partition tables

Not declaratively. This topic is discussed very frequently; search the
archives for an extended discussion earlier this month under the subject
"Partitioning." Currently with PG, you can have "roll your own"
partitioning, and inherited tables help with this.
