The iPhone has a very smooth process of upgrading the phone. You turn on the new iPhone next to your old one, it prompts and voila. It's like upgrading hardware of your current phone.

I'm unsure if we're at a point where these things are even feasible. e.g I have configured my MBP a lot, the .zsh file, home directory and endless configuration.

I would not be surprised if they ditch the kernal completely, and make everything an App (much like chromebook)

As long as I want to avoid very edgy race condition cases (low throughput), any DB will work right?

Either Mongo, MySQL or List in Redis.

Is there anything sepcific about Postgres when it comes to this? (except SKIP TABLES, as mentioned in other comments)

Can you shed a bit more light on this -

I've never used Postgres in my life ever.
