Hybrid data platform has delivered reliable transactions and powerful performance for our apps

One of the most important points about PostgreSQL on Ubuntu is that it is free. We do not have to worry about cost per core. It is a fully-featured database that supports a lot of features that modern applications need. In fact, it even supports document-based databases. It is quite a powerful solution. The performance of PostgreSQL on Ubuntu's parallel query executions was very good. That is why we selected the solution. We utilize ACID transactions with PostgreSQL on Ubuntu. ACID transactions impact our data reliability in our work significantly. Reliability is very important and ACID helps us reach that goal. Regarding isolation specifically, our application did not require any specific isolation of transactions, but overall, ACID is still very important.

Runs consistently in production and supports reliable backend infrastructure workflows

Compared to any other offering in the Linux world, to me personally, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Noble (Arm) is quite similar and doesn't really matter; it usually just works. The differences are usually in support and the Ubuntu Pro plan, which I do not have, but the same applies with Red Hat—you can run it free of charge, but then you lack the support, which is what I do with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Noble (Arm) as well, so it runs the same as any other Linux distro. In terms of stability and reliability, I've had none worth mentioning or caused by something that wasn't in my own hands, so that's been fine so far. In my team, I have about seven people managing about 60 to 70 VMs across four different clusters and about 16 nodes. I spread them out very evenly and very thinly. User-wise, I don't really serve a company internally; I sell my service on the open market. I have no idea on the numbers of how many customers I have, but it's in the several thousands that use the machines or the service I host through my infrastructure.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The best feature of PostgreSQL on Ubuntu is its structure because it adds clarity and understanding when investigating a database, which enhances readability and understandability for someone new to the project."

"We have worked with various databases including SQL Server and MySQL, but I found PostgreSQL on Ubuntu to be the most cost-effective and most performance-friendly solution."

"The best advantage of PostgreSQL on Ubuntu is its ability to fulfill all our requirements as an RDBMS; we frequently use various database-related operations such as storing, retrieving, and utilizing views and triggers, and its concurrency and connection handling are very efficient, especially since we have around 1,000 users."

"PostgreSQL on Ubuntu has positively impacted my organization by being very reliable; it has solid recovery and the risk of data loss is very low, making it very robust and ideal for production projects."

"Honestly, if I had to say the best thing about Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Noble (Arm), as opposed to other Linux distributions, is that there is a lot of software that explicitly recommends running it on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Noble (Arm) rather than other Linux distributions."

"Infrastructure as code, especially with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - Noble (Arm) or any other Linux distro, is key; if you don't have your IaC, you're going to spend forever maintaining it."

Cons

"I did notice one downside about PostgreSQL on Ubuntu. Certain queries were not behaving in the same way that SQL Server was handling those queries."

"PostgreSQL on Ubuntu can be improved because it is a bit slower than other solutions I have used."

"The only thing I would say maybe could see some improvement is that every once in a while it can be a little bit of a hassle keeping the NVIDIA drivers up to date to prevent any kind of crashes or issues with the NVIDIA drivers."

"I would like to see repository clearance and clarity in the repository, as if you try to get anything from the canonical repo, there tends to be ambiguity in the descriptions and especially the versioning, which makes very little sense."
