Solvo.WMS & Solvo.Yard to Support Free PostgreSQL Database Management System

25 May 2018

Due to the depreciation of the Russian ruble and possible restrictions in using commercial licenses of traditional Database management systems (DBMS) within the Russian Federation such as Oracle and Microsoft SQL, SOLVO is planning to fully support the PostgreSQL version 10.x by August 2019 in its Solvo.WMS and Solvo.Yard solutions.

Solvo.WMS and Solvo.Yard are some of the first fully-Russian developed software solutions for managing warehouse processing that will support the free version of PostgreSQL.

The main advantage of the given DBMS is its accessibility for the end-user. PostgreSQL is free to distribute with a free license. Moreover, its functionality, reliability and speed will be on par with the majority of commercial databases.

Another benefit of PostgreSWL is that since it is an object-relational DBMS, it has several advantages over other open-source SQL databases, in particular, the support of user-defined objects and their behavior, including the type of data, function, operations, domains, and indices, which makes it flexible and reliable.

Meanwhile, Oracle DBMS will remain the main fully supported DBMS for all SOLVO products.

“For us, support for PostgreSQL opens new opportunities for developing WMS system as well as yard management systems like Solvo.Yard. Now, our solutions are accessible for companies who previously could not afford a licensed DB solution. Clients will be able to install and roll out PostgreSQL either independently or with our assistance,” explained Alexey Smirnov, deputy general director of sales at SOLVO.

SOLVO has opened up the ability to preorder Solvo.WMS based on PostgreSQL under special condition for all customers.
