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
