After the company went under after being beaten by Oracle in the RDBMS marketplace, he open-sourced the DB as a shot against Larry Ellison. Hence it’s name, “Post-Ingres”, or Postgres.&lt;p&gt;Also, I believe his version of SQL was called QUEL, and we would have been using that term today had Ingres won out.</text></comment>

I’m betting most of my wealth and my new company on Postgres, if it succeeds, I hope to emulate you.
Postgres is an incredible data platform, that just gets better and better every year with more functionality AND better performance (unlike most software where more features = slower) AND consistent rock solid reliability AND the best documentation of any product I have seen.</text></comment>
