Does anyone here have experience using both MySQL and PostgreSQL to some reasonable degree they could offer tips or anecdotes on moving from one t'other? I'd be interested in any other comparative experiences too like speed, ease of use, etc.
The reason I'm thinking of moving is that I have a schema that has a lot of references to references to references to ... so lack of sub-selects and cascading deletes is starting to turn into a nightmare. (I get the impression a lot of the MySQL apps simply don't use DELETE :-) That phpPgAdmin exists is another great help... How close is PostgreSQL to Oracle in terms of its SQL capabilities? I've come from a Oracle background so if there's more stuff I won't have maybe I should think twice about PG and just embrace (the other) Larry. Or Sybase?
