Overall Satisfaction with PostgreSQL
We use PostgreSQL as our solutions database, we looked for a full featured database server that will be both reliable, with high performance and supported on our Linux CentOS based platforms. We preferred Open Source solutions as we did not want to increase our solution price.
Highnet Systems' SNS++ Notification Management solution is sold on license on premise solution, as such the customer need platform (Hardware or virtual server), Operating System, Database Server, WEB Server and finality our software. by selecting Open Source platforms we are able to provide our customer with great enterprise level solution at very small cost.
PostgreSQL give us great performance supporting organizations with millions of alerts per day, with complex alert handling solutions. We started using PostgreSQL more than 15 years ago and it is still great solution, with wide industry support, easy management and development tools and because we provide our solutions to big organizations it helps to relay on platform like PostgreSQL that is constantly developed to face both new demands, environments and security risks.

- Open Source solution that does not cost more money to our customers help us keep our solution cost affordable.
- Excellent database that is well supported and continue development allow us to benefit from our investment for many (more than 15) years.
Both Oracle and MS-SQL database option fell when we evaluated the effect on our overall solution cost to our customers. customer examine the overall cost of the solution they buy, selecting Oracle or MS-SQL would leave less money in our pockets.
We are Linux based solutions and for many of our customers one server instance (physical or virtual) is enough to handle their alerts management needs selecting MS-SQL will require additional Microsoft based server in the solution.
MySQL was the 2nd choice we had as an Open Source database solution, I believe PostgreSQL provide better performance for the type of processing that we need.
