Hi,

I know there is a manual but it is quite a large and heavy document.
Does anyone know of a document that compares and shows the differences between
SQL Server and Postgres?
That will be a substantial shortcut for me.

Well that's a pretty big topic, and you've not hinted much as to which
aspects you'd like to compare.
Perhaps somewhere like [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_relational_database_management_systems might be a good start.

I am maintaining an (brief) overview of different (SQL level) features:

http://www.sql-workbench.net/dbms_comparison.html

Maybe that already helps a bit.

Some other posts/blogs I have bookmarked regarding this:
