[Health] High Level Database architecture question

[Vernon Oberholzer]

Hi,

Traditionally, many healthcare systems have used some form of the

Mumps(M) database. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUMPS

This database is not a traditional relational database, and is

claimed to be particularly well suited to healthcare data because

of it's flexibility and speed.

With GNU Health using the Postgresql relational database as it's

foundation, have there been any issues relating to flexibility or

performance, or have these factors been satisfactory thus far ?

Thank-you,

-Vernon
