Hi all; I am considering doing a talk (not a tutorial) on how the advanced features of PostgreSQL allow for extremely powerful business databases. An abstract follows: Many application developers working with relational database systems are used to using the database as a simple data store. However PostgreSQL allows for far more sophisticated "active," or self-managing databases to be developed. Many business applications can benefit from using an active database. This paper explored how views, rules, triggers, and functions can be used in order to create an active database. The Open Reservation Management System database (http://sourceforge.net/projects/openres, not yet stable) will be used as an example, as will the HERMES CRM database system (http://hermesweb.sourceforge.net).
