A Step Forward
Recently I upgraded my "lab" setup.
Now it currently looks as follows:
* 2x Physical Hosts running vSphere 5.1
* Controlled by vCenter 5.1 Server Appliance backed with embedded Postgres Database instance
* Monitored by vCenter Operations which has two embedded Postgres Database instance in the vApp
*To monitor my VMs, I installed vFabric Hyperic 5.0 also running embedded Postgres Database VM.
* DBaaS provider vFabric Data Director 2.5 also installed with its embedded Postgres database instance running too
Now for my VMs:
* vFabric Postgres 9.1.6.0 VM integrated with vSphere HA
* My Linux Developer VM running PostgreSQL 9.2.1
If you get everything you need with Postgres, why even QA for other databases anymore?
Well vFabric Hyperic took the first bold step forward.

Postgres @ VMware
Recently VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.0 u1a was released with embedded Postgres based distribution. Check out the release notes.
Quote from release notes:
"vCenter Server Appliance Database Support: The DB2 express embedded database provided with the vCenter Server Appliance has been replaced with VMware vPostgres database. This decreases the appliance footprint and reduces the time to deploy vCenter Server further."
vCenter Server Appliance joins the growing list of VMware products embedding and/or supporting Postgres.
