EDB for PostgreSQL Reviews & Product Details

Fast. Using a database link and a foreign data wrapper to refresh data from a SQL server source is faster than the ETL tool I use. The ETL tool takes > 60 minutes to refresh the data. Refreshing the data using a database link in EDB Postgres and the foreign data wrapper for SQL server takes < 5minutes. The data from every data table is copied from the external SQL Server to EDB pstgres. Great support as well as EDB met with our team to review the set-up and provided feedback!

Pulling data from a database link using an Oracle Foreign Data Wrapper into postgres and inserting the data can fill up the memory and the memory is not released upon a commit. Instead the memory is released upon the end of that session. This was an issue with using EDB Postgres but with some working sessions with the team at EDB, we figured out a solution that works.

1. Support Organization - lets face it since Postgres is open-source, the support organization is the only thing that really matters. EDB support is top-tier overall.

2. Value-added utilities (EFM, BARMAN, etc)

3. Extensibility

4. Stability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Depending on the support version you are using: EDB for PostgreSQL vs EPAS(Enterprise Postgres Advance Sever) the on-disk format is not compatible. That is something to consider as it is a little more difficult to go from EDB - EPAS(prioprietary) to EDB Postgres(Community) versions.

The fast lifecycle versions go out of support is a little aggressive for companies with large on prem-deployments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

EDB helped us refine our Postgres administration capability. We engaged in a Professional Services engagement to modernize our Postgres architecture, which greatly exceeded expectations. Amit was thoroughly knowledgable about Postgres administration; every hiccup I ran into he had an answer right away and saved me countless hours of troubleshooting.

We also purchased a PEM license to centralize the monitoring of our Postgres instances and unlock our ability to diagnose and debug performance issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
