## Source excerpt

Have you heard about the Open World Forum conference that takes place in Paris, October 3-5, 2013? I'll be presenting a talk about PostgreSQL in the track NewSQL: Managing large data sets with relational technologies. *Open World Forum used to be Open Source Developers Conference* My talk is PostgreSQL is web scale and here's the summary: We call it the world's most advanced open source database, and we are actually offering in the same package full ACID compliance per default and advanced trade-offs to reach any kind of flexibility needed, all with per-transaction controls. That's including your replication and High Availability setup. Given proper use of those controls and some schemaless extensions, PostgreSQL really is web scale!
