Thanks for sharing, great article. I think most of the folks singing the praises of Postgres over MySQL have never had to operationally support both databases in complex multi-DC replication environments. The answer to many replication issues with Postgres is 'rebuild the DB from scratch', which is a terrible answer when you have large databases.

I thankfully no longer have to support Postgres in production, but I can still vividly recall that terrible sense of dread I'd get in my stomach whenever I'd receive a replication alert for a Postgres database.
