%description
- PostgreSQL is a sophisticated Object-Relational DBMS, supporting
- almost all SQL constructs, including subselects, transactions,
- and user-defined types and functions. It is the most advanced
- open-source database available anywhere.
-
- This PostgreSQL package optionally contains two database replication
- solutions: the Slony-I single-master/multiple-slave replication
- engine, and the PGCluster multi-master replication engine.
- Additionally, there is a third option using the OpenPKG PGPool
- package which offers a connection pooling/replication frontend.
+ PostgreSQL is a sophisticated Object-Relational Database Management
+ System (ORDBMS). It is fully ACID compliant and has full support
+ for foreign keys, joins, views, triggers, and stored procedures (in
+ multiple languages). It includes most SQL92 and SQL99 data types
+ and also supports storage of binary large objects. It is the most
+ advanced Open-Source RDBMS available anywhere.
+
+ As an enterprise class RDBMS, PostgreSQL boasts sophisticated
+ features such as Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC), Point In
+ Time Recovery (PITR), tablespaces, asynchronous replication, nested
+ transactions (savepoints), online/hot backups, a sophisticated
+ query planner/optimizer, and Write Ahead Logging (WAL) for fault
+ tolerance. It supports international character sets, multibyte
+ character encodings, Unicode, and it is locale-aware for sorting,
+ case-sensitivity, and formatting. It is highly scalable both in the
+ sheer quantity of data it can manage and in the number of concurrent
+ users it can accommodate.
