Thread: BDR and PostgreSQL 12 and Windows support
I've seen that BDR may be rolled into core PostgreSQL version 12 and was wondering if anyone knows if that BDR support will be extended to Windows or if it will remain a non-WIndows feature.
Thanks,

I've been waiting for years for multi master support in PostgreSQL on Windows. Surely if it's being added to the main code base it'll have to be supported on every platform? Are there any core features at the moment that are Linux only?

Let's not start "OS wars" here. Windows is one of the platforms Postgres supports.

JIT, introduced in Postgres 11, comes to mind
JIT is not Linux only.
It currently does not work on Windows AFAIK, but it does work on a number of other non-Linux OSes.
And there are other things that don't work on Windows, such as e.g. peer authentication. They are significantly more minor features though.
