[AccessD] NewSQL (was: Fun and games in web design)

I think I did mention the new Postgres-XC which does fall in the category of
NewSQL. So what FE clients can it use?

ASP.Net, Node.js, PHP, Python...?

MySQL is obviously not a perfect database and there is no one database for
all types of applications. But I wonder why people so often forget about
Postgres. It's a stunning database - much better than MySQL in all things
that matter and can certain compete head to head against these NewSQL dbs.

It's strange.
