Oracle vs PostgreSQL

5 good reasons to migrate from Oracle to PostgreSQL

Cost Savings: PostgreSQL is open-source and free to use, unlike Oracle, which comes with high licensing and support costs. This cost advantage allows businesses to allocate resources more effectively, especially for startups or organizations looking to reduce their IT expenses.
Vendor Independence: PostgreSQL provides full autonomy from commercial vendors, meaning no lock-in with proprietary technologies. Organizations can modify and customize PostgreSQL as needed, without relying on Oracle’s proprietary ecosystem and its associated limitations or costs.
Advanced Features and Extensibility: PostgreSQL offers a wide range of advanced features for handling semi-structured data, native full-text search, and powerful indexing capabilities like GiST and GIN. It’s also highly extensible, allowing users to create custom data types, functions, and operators tailored to specific needs, which is more challenging with Oracle's closed system.
Active Community and Innovation: PostgreSQL has a vibrant, active global community that continuously contributes to its development, ensuring rapid improvements, security updates, and new features. While Oracle has strong support, PostgreSQL’s open-source community fosters innovation and rapid adaptation to modern trends like cloud-native environments and microservices.
Cloud and DevOps Friendly: PostgreSQL is supported by all major cloud providers, making it highly compatible with cloud-native applications and modern DevOps pipelines. Organizations seeking to modernize their infrastructure or adopt multi-cloud strategies often find PostgreSQL more adaptable and easier to scale in cloud environments compared to Oracle.
