When someone, e.g., as appeared in a recent and some older pgsql-jobs messages, says "Native Postgres", what do you suppose that means? Does it mean something different than just "PostgreSQL"? Is the word "Native" just noise, or does it actually refer to something specific? A quick google search reveals that there apparently is a thing called "postgres-native" which is described as "...a native D implementation of the Postgres frontend/backend protocol.", but I don't get the sense that this is what is being talked about.
Native Postgres/PostgreSQL would imply PostgreSQL installed on a VM or bare metal instead of something like Google Postgres or Amazon RDS.
