You must be joking right? Either that or spending too much time on HN. PostgreSQL has won in the same sense that Golang or Clojure have won: in frequency of frontpage HN articles.

I think it all depends how you define winning here. Based on popularity alone - yeah, MySQL is still the king. Based on capabilities - I think it's fair to say that pgSQL is more capable and it's just that not everybody needs that one.

And even though I love PostgreSQL (and was working with all major databases), I still think that the real winner is sqlite :)
