Huh... a person who compares databases with regards to analytics and doesn't mention OLAP. Doesn't mention ETL. Doesn't mention reporting. What kind of comparison is that? I often read reviews of databases which dismiss MSSQL completely. And that's fine when it is about building applications. HOWEVER, MSSQL comes with very featurefull ETL tools, very featurefull MOLAP and HOLAP and very featurell reporting suite. It also comes with some data mining algorithms for which I am not qualified to talk, but I've heard the functionality is pretty nice for a starting point. It also comes with an IDE for the people who do those things and a DBA tool for people who administer the databases.

Out of those things, postgres has a DBA tool out of the box. Yeah... nice comparison.

I find it particularly funny that he cites Dunning-Kruger. DK effect is not meant for others. It is meant for self-evaluation.
