Re: [Zope] A Suitable RDBMS?

Hi,

I saw a posting today that MySQL was not recommended as an RDBMS for use with Zope. I'd like to use and external database for storing customers' price lists and product galleries; what (preferably free :) database would people recommend? What are the pros and cons of each?

Thanks, Dan

I would have to recommend postgresql. I've got a prototype ecommerce site running with Zope at the front, some python in the middle and postgresql at the backend. Currently it is a prototype so we only have about 20,000 items in there at the moment however it seems to work very well. (Once I brushed up on some of my SQL). Check it out at http://www.postgresql.org Cheers, Benno
