The PostgreSQL Fundraising Project is an SPI affiliate project, controlled by its
members, established to promote and support PostgreSQL, the world's most advanced and powerful open-source RDBMS (Relational Database Management System). The PostgreSQL Fundraising Project does not in any way control the development of the PostgreSQL project; rather its purpose is to raise funds to finance various PostgreSQL related activities including tradeshows, services, advertising, legal expenses, travel expenses and general advocacy. We encourage donations from individuals and companies.
About PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL is the most advanced open source database system in the world. Many organizations, from large corporations to small online businesses, from government institutions to independent software vendors, have implemented PostgreSQL to handle their most valuable data and mission critical applications.
A few of PostgreSQL's advantages over other database systems are:
- Flexible licensing puts you in control of how PostgreSQL is deployed in your organization.
- Exceptional performance and speed
- Uncompromising reliability
- Flexibility to be extended as required
- Highly scalable design
- Extensive support options
- Minimal administration requirements
- Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
- ANSI Standards Compliance
With over a 16 year development history, one of the strongest development communities in the world, and a global reputation for high quality software engineering, PostgreSQL gets the job done and with no hassles.
