host with PostgreSQL?

[phpbubs]

Can anyone recommend a good web host that supports PHP and PostgreSQL? There's no shortage of hosts offering PHP and MySQL, but PostgreSQL seems a bit harder to come by.

I found some via Google (I wouldn't post the question without first doing my homework 😃), but I was wondering if anyone here can offer a recommendation based on having actually dealt with such a host?

PumaHosting.com has it. I've used them and had good results. I don't use PostgreSQL. I just know they have it available.

you may want to ask Sxooter, he is a huge pgsql fan, maybe he knows of a good one

Indeed, I am the man to ask.

The ones at the top tend to be the more "up to date" folks.

To add to that list, rackshack installs (in my experience) PostgreSQL on new dedicated servers. You usually just need to initdb, start pg, and add an entry in init.d.

Yeah, it's worth nothing that if you get command prompt access (or even if you don't, what the hey, you've PHP, you can roll your own) you can often compile postgresql if you have to or at least initdb in your own directory to get it up and running.
