PostgreSQL Conference East 2008 this weekend
PostgreSQL Conference East 2008 is probably the first PostgreSQL user conference that I will be attending and also presenting couple of sessions. One of my sessions PostgreSQL and Benchmarks is on Saturday 2:30pm in CSIC 2117 and the other Best Practices of PostgreSQL on Solaris is on Sunday 1:45pm in CSIC 3117 (Schedule can change!). Its is being held in the Center for Scientific Computation and Mathematical Modeling at the University of Maryland College Park.
It will be good to meet in person lot of names that I have only read on emails but never had a face associated with it. Not sure if any local Sun folks will be visiting the conference but if you are, it will be good to meet all out there.

Your blog is very interesting. I was wondering if you could give me a few leads on System Integration literature with respect to generic 3-tier architecture. Also, is there any link(s) that gives me some info on how enterprise servers perform with respect to web/app/databases? More like bench mark reports on various servers and how they are ranked, because we're going to install some rack servers for our organization. We'll be hosting & testing some 3-tier applications extensively. So thought if you could give me some lead. Thank you.

Hi Thirunarayan
The answer to your request is very complex:-)
Hope following websites help you out

And other benchmarks from the sources themselves
