The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, March 13. The meeting topic for this month is as
follows:
PostgreSQL: Who, What, Where, When, Why
Adam Thompson will talk about the PostgreSQL open-source
relational database: who should use it, what's it all about, where
do you find it, a little bit of its history, and the rationale
behind its current existence. PostgreSQL is the leading OSS RDBMS
for non-trivial applications, scales to enterprise and beyond
(petascale), and has features that let it compete directly with
Oracle. In fact, there's a commercial edition that you can buy
specifically to replace Oracle!
RTFM: ulimit/limit
Gilbert Detillieux will present an RTFM on ulimit(1), as well
as the csh/tcsh equivalent, limit(1). This is a shell built-in
command for displaying and setting various per-process resource
limits, using the setrlimit(2) system call.
The group holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every
month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and
August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a
MUUG member to attend.
