postgresql8.3
PostgreSQL has made the leap from 7.4 to 8 Beta with several new features of interest. Front and center to many will be the native Windows support. Prior to this release the database platform only ran on Windows within Unix emulation under Cygwin. PostgreSQL can run as a service and supports Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, XP and 2003.
PostgreSQL通过一些有趣的新功能从7.4 Beta跃升到8 Beta。 Windows的本机支持将是许多支持的焦点。 在此版本之前，数据库平台只能在Cygwin下的Unix仿真中的Windows上运行。 PostgreSQL可以作为服务运行，并支持Windows NT 4，Windows 2000，XP和2003。
Additional features include the ability to control what filesystems hold databases, indexes and more. This feature, known as tablespaces, can improve system performance.
其他功能包括控制哪些文件系统可以保存数据库，索引等的功能。 此功能称为表空间，可以提高系统性能。
A utility called Point-In-Time recovery has expanded backup capabilities to provide ongoing restore points for easier recovery from hardware failure.
名为时间点恢复的实用程序扩展了备份功能，可以提供持续的恢复点，从而更容易地从硬件故障中恢复。
