PostgreSQL is an open source RDBMS and it is widely considered the most advanced open source database in the world. PostgreSQL provides a wealth of features that are usually only found in commercial databases such as DB2 or Oracle.
Its most innovative feature that I've seen is Write Ahead Logging (WAL) which increases the reliability of the database by logging changes before they are written to the database. This ensures that, in the unlikely occurrence of a database crash, there will be a record of transactions from which to restore.
