[$] PostgreSQL 9.3 beta: Federated databases and more
In Berkeley, California — the birthplace of PostgreSQL — it's spring: plum
and cherry blossoms, courting finches and college students, new plans for
the summer, and the first beta release of the database
system. Every year, the first beta of the next PostgreSQL version comes out
in April or May, for a final release in September. PostgreSQL
9.3 beta 1 was released to the public on May 13th, and contains a
couple dozen new features both for database administrators and application
developers. Subscribers can click below for a look at some of the new
features by guest author Josh Berkus.
