Hi,

I have had a short time to play around with SymmetricDS and it is pretty easy to setup. There are two ways of doing it,
(1)two node setup:  master-slave (2) three node setup: centralized master sending and receiving updates to/from two
childnodes as the little diagram shows in the "Demo" section of the tutorials.
 

I've had to basically follow the manuals to configure both the setups and is very easy to start cracking with. It is
triggerbased just like Slony is, however, I could not test SymmetricDS with massive amounts of data as I 've tested
Slony.

Slony is robust but a little cumbersome to implement but if you know what you doing with Slony and follow the manuals,
itreally creates wonders. I have seen situations where Slony deamons were killed and restarted and it picked up from
whereit had left without breaking down completely.

Hello,

While looking for a master/master replication solution i found this solution https://www.symmetricds.org/ but never
testedit, if you do i'm interested in a feedback.
 
I ended up using master/slave with automatic failover (with repmgr).
