Again, this is a lot of work to avoid master / slave with failover.
Are you sure it's really needed for your situation?


What is the most straightforward and simple way to achieve master slave with failover? 

Preferably  a solution that would have decent monitoring, alerting and failback capacity.

It would be also nice if you could use the standby as a read only database for reporting or something.
