POSTGRES
<database> An active DBMS developed at the University of California at
Berkeley by a team led by Michael Stonebraker (1986-1994). Postgres was later
taken by Illustra and developed into a commercial product, which in turn was
bought by Informix and integrated into their product, Universal Server.
PostgreSQL is a further development of the original POSTGRES code as a free
software alternative to commercial DBMS vendor offerings.
