Enterprise Db

"EnterpriseDB Corporation (EDB) was founded in 2004 to bring the benefits of open source databases to enterprise customers. Until now, enterprises have had to choose between the expensive solutions they have been locked into for decades and lightweight open source database products that are not enterprise-class.

The EDB product set is built on top of PostgreSQL, the world's most advanced open source database. PostgreSQL was first developed at the University of California at Berkeley by the same team that built Ingres, and has been under continuous community development for 20 years. With millions of downloads to date, it is the second most popular open source database in the world, and is widely regarded as best-in-class for enterprise features such as transaction processing, data integrity, and security.

The EDB product adds capabilities to PostgreSQL in three primary areas:

• Compatibility with traditional databases (Existing applications run unchanged)
• Performance and scalability enhancements (Faster, even under intense loads)
• Improved quality and security (Hardened for commercial use)"
