Perhaps I'm in the clueless n00b category, here, but how does:
"dblink [] a module which supports connections to other PostgreSQL databases from within a database session."
Even approach solving the problem of Database Replication for Data Warehousing aka Reports DB?
dblink looks more like SSH or Telnet for DB access than a db replication solution to me.
Please explain.
Thanks.
have a day.yad
