Hi
I am used to using Oracle (15 years) and MySQL(5 years), but I am planning
to move an existing application from MySQL to Postgres. The reasons are very
simple,
* New requirements means we need views, or a significant re-write
* Better query/index performance essential.
* Postgres and MySQL share a very common implementation of SQL-92, and
what is missing can easily be implanted in functions
The only negative issue is replication. I have checked several Postgres
Replication options and unsure which way to go. Can anyone recommend a
replication option that meets the following:
* Does not use triggers. Usually slow, and one action that modifies
several records, can trigger many actions on slaves/peers.
* Does use WAL, or other log, so that SQL DDL/DML is copied to
slave/peer, rather than the result of the DDL/DML.
* Must provide master-master and master-slave replication
* Simple to configure and maintain
Many Thanx
Simon Windsor

I think only Mammoth's ships WAL logs. Josh?

I don't think any of the solutions will do master-master.

No we do not ship WAL logs. We ship our own transaction logs. One of the
reasons we do this is so you can bring up new slaves live. We do not
support replication of the SQL DDL but you do not need to stop the
replication or stop the database to add tables to the replicated list.
• Must provide master-master and master-slave replication

Only that new clusgres thing from LinuxLabs but I would have to see it
in production before I would get anywhere near it.

Hi all,
I have set up master/slave replication between 2 servers (1 master,
1 slave). However, when I change a table on the master (e.g.
by inserting a row), the same table on the slave is not updated.
The strange thing is that if I enter SHOW SLAVE STATUS on the client,
it gives me the same offset in the binary log on the master as the
master gives when issuing SHOW MASTER STATUS (both entered after the update).

did someone try successfully to use the replication extension that was

gets replicated back to A and so on creating an infinite loop. Is...

I have a database that needs to be replicated over the Internet. I was
hoping it would be a simple task, but apparently it is not. I've started
browsing the msdn article on the topic. In the meantime, I am wondering who
might be able to host a server on the Internet that meets such requirements.
If anybody has had any experience with this, and/or if you can recommend a
host who meets said requirements, I'd appreciate it if you'd post.

Hi,
I've been using an Access application I wrote for an office with the
front-end stored on all computers and the back-end on one of them serving as
an Access file server.
Now we're moving to a 2nd office 15 minutes down the road. Only one office
will be open at a time, so theoretically it'd be possible to copy the
back-end manually every night from one office to another, but frankly,
that's pretty annoying.

Assuming we don't bite off trying to roll our own solution, it looks

1) contrib/rserv
2) erserver
3) slony
