I've never used postgresql with zope but I have used it as a back end for applications. I've also used mysql and Oracle. Mysql and Postgresql are very different beasts Mysql is fairly fast and light whereas postgresql is slower and needs more resources. But for sheer flexability it wins hands down as does its support for big database features, though unfortunately it is not yet in the same class as oracle for supporting enterprise environment. I've never had a problem with its reliability in a production environment as long as you feed and water it enough and are sensible about when to use a release. Christopher Petrilli wrote:

What about Postgresql? Do people feel that is an acceptable option?
Feature set wise ,it's nice, but it's had some pretty rough roads since it's moved to SQL in bug problems, and I've heard serious performance restrictions. That having been said, I know a lot of people who use it heavily.
