Subject: Partitioning in postgres - basic question
Date: Thu, 4 Oct 2007 18:51:14 +0100
Message-ID: <fe3980$hd9$1@news.hub.org> (raw)

Hi,

I am new to postgres having worked with Oracle in the past. I am interested 
in understanding Postgres's table partition functionality better. 
Specifically, I have a third party application running against my postgres 
database, but the database is becoming rather large to maintain. I am 
thinking about partitioning the biggest table.

Would I be able to set-up partitioning on this table with it being seemless 
to the third party app (assuming that it performs pretty standard DML 
statements against the table in question)?

Thanks
Tore
