Replication, HA ...?

From
Andreas Kraftl
Date:
Hello,

I have a webserver with postgresql. I would have a backup from this
database. It should also be possible to query this backup solution.
So I think slony would be a good choice. Am I right?

Thanks for answers
Andreas

Check out cybercluster at http://www.postgresql.at/
It's free, however the support can cost a bit. But the software itself is free,
and it's built on postgresql8.2.

YOu can also check out PgPool II http://pgpool.projects.postgresql.org/

Slony will replicate the data from selected tables for you, and the
replicated database will be available for queries. So it will work for
you unless you face performance limits, or have some problem with
asynchronous updates, or find Slony setup to be too difficult.
