EDB has a "compatibility mode", but that's EDB. Oracle has produced some documentation for PostgreSQL (ex. https://docs.oracle.com/en/solutions/deploy-postgresql-db/index.html). You can deploy a PostgreSQL cluster on an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Their "go to" still seems to be MySQL, but perhaps this has changed? Could you please clarify would you mean by "supports"?

Currently I am working Postgres on AWS platforms. aws is giving Postgres support without having any of it's own authentication on the Postgres. In my opinion, OCI will give similar type of support if OCI does.

I am saying this because OCI claims OCI is the cheapest cloud in the market. But this could be wrong claim as well.

I don't know if they porvide support. Cloud hosting companies are usually not that interested in providing support. They want their customers to pay their monthly dues without generating any extra work for them. And what I have been told about the development of the quality of Oracle support in the last decade or so, support by Oracle doesn't sound exactly appealing (beside the fact that they probably know little about PostgreSQL).

Well from their product news - https://blogs.oracle.com/cloud-infrastructure/post/expand-managed-open-source-services-on-oci "OCI Database with PostgreSQL is a fully managed PostgreSQL database service ..." "Fully managed" should mean they keep the system and PostgreSQL running and you only get to access the server as a client, so they have to provide some level of support. > And what I have been told about the development of the quality of Oracle > support in the last decade or so, support by Oracle doesn't sound exactly > appealing (beside the fact that they probably know little about PostgreSQL). No one said their support was good ;) only that they offer it. -- Shane Ambler pgSQL (at) Sheeky (dot) Biz ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 21+ messages in thread
