My project is E-Business Project. Comaprision of PostgreSQL vs MySQL could be in e-commerce project point of view.

Please bother searching this forum, this topic has been discussed a million times.

MySQL is a great light-weight data store. it does its best to store information as the frontend requires. it also has great features such as HEAP tables, which can be used as SQL interfaces to cached memory.

PostgreSQL is attempting to be an enterprise database solution. If you want a backend which contains additional features for ensuring that your database has meaningful data.

For serious applications, PostgreSQL is probably better *in most cases* though MySQL is good for certain kinds of applications.
