[Qgis-user] Geodata storage

[Mats Elfström]

Hi all!
Bearing on a recent thread which in part discussed QGIS in mixed
environments, I would like to raise the question of geodata storage.
Choosing the right client for different tasks and needs is one thing, but
they must all be able to access the same data.
File based storage is out, for obvoius reasons, but that still leaves a
handful of able geodatabase formats and vendors.

Which, in your opinion, would be the most efficient geodatabase for a mixed
ESRI-QGIS-AutoDesk environment?

I have been struggling for some time to find a feasible platform and the
strongest contestant today is PostgreSQL/PostGIS, possibly in combination
with a WMS server.
But while QGIS gladly accepts any version, ArcGIS stops at PostGIS 9.3 even
at the latest 10.3 version.
ArcSDE is not an option beacuse of the cost.

Regards, Mats.E
