You don't need transactions as much as you don't need a database since you can work on flat file... but they are definitively comfort when you've to keep your data coherent. eg. what if a customer changes its order while it is closing it? Surely you could add constraints and checks in your application... but the DB seems a better place where to check if the data you're storing are coherent. As up to my knowledge Ubercart uses the workflow module to check "constraints", but it doesn't exploit the features of the DB. I'd say that a drupal cart will "mostly" work with PostgreSQL and the changes you'll have to do to make it works may be minimal... but somehow core is more DB friendly than most modules so you may have some surprises. Still no popular Free cart I know rely on DB coherency features especially the ones written in PHP. -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
