business accounting features database support will
be needed to handle massive datasets.</para>
<para>The Postgres backend allows multiple simultaneous
users to work on the same set of accounts at the same
time. When one user makes a change to a transaction,
the change is sent to the Postgres database, and other
users see the effect of that change within (10) seconds.
The Postgres backend also maintains an audit trail
of modified transactions, allowing you to see what changed,
when. (Currently, there is no GUI to review the audit trail,
one must be an SQL user to review the trail). The
Postgres backend also 'caches' data, so that a user
only sees the data they are working with, without requiring
that the entire contents of the database be loaded into
GnucCash. This should make it possible to work with much
larger datasets. The Postgres backend is currently 'beta',
meaning tht it works, but hasn't been well-tested, and
may contain bugs.
</para>
<para>Similarly, an RPC backend exists, which allows you
to seperate the engine and interface and have them
running on totally seperate machines. Developments
