Parallel Sequential Scan is Committed to PostgreSQL 9.6
Postgres is going in one direction - for the better. And as a long time Postgres user I've been really happy with it for years. Now with JSONB support I am even happier, as I can build powerful RDBMS + "NoSQL" apps that outperform traditional NoSQL databases.<p>To my disappointment several members of my team have been championing Oracle recently though - presumably because it's a safer option and can be managed by others under an SLA.<p>How does one argue against this? With Postgres we're not going to get SLA's because we know it very well, but with Oracle we would. It's mostly perception management IMHO, and I'm mostly against it. What killer core features does Oracle have that Postgres doesn't?
