    I am checking with a person who uses Postgres on Power Platform. Will ask him to respond to you Tommi.

    For which OS on Power? IBM i, AIX, Linux?

    Postgres is available for IBM i as an Open Source package, just like other databases like MariaDB and Redis.
    Installation and configuration is documented here: https://ibmi-oss-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/postgresql.html

    Also Richard Schoen has written about Postgres on IBM i - you can find it on GitHub: https://github.com/richardschoen/howtostuff/blob/master/installpostgresonibmi.md.

    Hi

    I'm currently working in a project of migrating from Oracle to Postgresql on Linux LPARS on Power9. We are now in the provisioning of the LPARS and installing Linux Redhat 7.9 and first installations of EDB on Linux.

    I'm running PostgreSQL in a container on a RHEL LPAR. I's working well for our needs.

    Hi Tommi,

    I have a customer running several LPARs with RHEL 7.9 and EDB on POWER9 E980s with typical financial-type applications and is planning for more deployments.
