EnterpriseDB 2005

Took up the PostgreSQL code base and added some propriety technology to make it more reliable, secure, better performer and compatible (mainly with Oracle); and finally renamed it to EnterpirseDB. Its status about Open Source is unclear to me. Sys-Con and  TechSpot call it open source where as eWeek and Database Journel fails to mention so. Even EnterpirseDB website is not clear about its status. It is free for development, test, and low-volume production but enterprise production will cost money.

The only good thing is that it was a breeze to install it on Windows machine. Downloading incentive include a golf shirt provided you are in US.
