[Biodevelopers] what databases are you using?

[Pawel Krasucki]

I was going to setup a test environment and was trying to figure what db
to setup as well.  You mentioned using Postgres, have you ever worked
with MySQL?  Although I've installed Postgres, I haven't worked with it
at all, is it hard to pick up and work with?  I had it running on Linux,
and was using GUI utility with Linux to administer Postgres,  is that a
common way to administer that db?

A few years ago, the db of choice was some sort of Oracle implementation
for many people I spoke to/worked with at a variety of pharmas and
biotechs.  I am curious what people are using now (if anything).  I do
know people using flat files for a variety of reasons as well.

Just curious.  I use/like Postgres for my own development/testing.
