We are considering OpenSource for less critical databases
to reduce Licence and Maintenance costs.



MySQL apparently does have Annual Fees (or Support).
Does Postgres have Annual Fees ?



Technically for

a) databases of upto 10GB
b) concurrent user counts of upto 25
c) single instance databases without replication
d) Apache/JBoss kind of application servers
e) 24x7 with requirements for Hot Backups
f) implementaion on Linux





what seems better ?  MySQL or Postgress.
