3.6) What is the upgrade process for PostgreSQL?
See http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning.
3.7) What computer hardware should I use?
Because PC hardware is mostly compatible, people tend to believe that
all PC hardware is of equal quality. It is not. ECC RAM, SCSI, and
quality motherboards are more reliable and have better performance
than less expensive hardware. PostgreSQL will run on almost any
hardware, but if reliability and performance are important it is wise
to research your hardware options thoroughly. Our email lists can be
used to discuss hardware options and tradeoffs.
