Hi all,

Considering switching a product from Informix Standard Engine to
PostgreSQL.

Has anyone done a comparison?

Thanks

Haven't heard of one, but I would be interested. Perhaps you could
install both and let us know.

Would like to. Will have to wait for some Forward Looking Work funding.

I was hoping I could find some info that could be used to help make the
decision (and get the funding going).

Cheers,

Dave

Does it take funding to download PostgreSQL?
