After a long while with no blog entries or reviews, I'm back with a new look gearing PostgreSQL support for Drupal up for the upcoming release of the long awaited Drupal 7.
Drupal 7 is almost stable. You maybe tempted to download it now and install it. By all means do! its great! But if you're installing Drupal on a PostgreSQL database, you'll run into a message like this:
Welcome to Drupal 7. I've moved my blog from Dreamhost to Rimuhosting and have gone VPS! In addition to that, my site is no longer sitting on MySQL (I had no choice while I was with dreamhost!) but now uses PostgreSQL 8.3 with Drupal 7. The fruits of my labour in all its glory.
One of the most exciting new features about Drupal 7 is the object orientated database layer, or Database: The Next Generation (DBTNG) as it was code named. For the first time in Drupal's history, you can now connect to several different databases of different server types at the same time. All using Drupal's database framework.
