I just remember reading that the .org TLD was running on Postgres ten plus years ago. Yahoo knows a thing or two about scaling up on Postgres as well, as I recall. When these decisions were made, it was generally expected that one would have quite a lot of work to do, regardless.
Makes me wonder how much hacking of postgres source code it required.
Me to having worked for a registry ICANS requirements for up time and availability are "challenging"

Would be very interesting to see how they setup PostgreSQL to support HA
