Обсуждение: US Military / Government Approval

Hello,

I am looking for any information regarding the approval of PostgreSQL by any United States government entities.  I am specifically looking for approval on a DOD (Department of Defense) or DADMS (Defense Automated Document Management System) list. However any information that is provided, even if it is unrelated to those two, would be appreciated.

FYI - We are looking to use Postgres for a military contract project and we were curious as to how the approval might go.  If there is evidence of Postgres being used previously, we would feel better about our chances.


Thank you for your time!

I did a contract where PostgreSQL was used by the NTIA to handle a
classified database (not defense related).  If you are interested in
details contact me off-list.

PostgreSQL was used extensivly to support the GSA/FAS Networx
acquisition and continues to be used for post-award work:
