Sorry to hear you spent some fruitless time there. PostgreSQL supports various kinds of replication - both internal streaming and Londiste work very well for many people, so those technology choices are good ones.

When it was working, and it saved us one one occasion, it worked like a charm. But then one database started to backlog and nothing I could do would fix it. Including removing and reinstalling londiste. Given that this was when it was with only 2 databases I wasn't prepared to commit all our other databases to it. A false sense of security is not security at all.

 

Probably trite to say time = money;  I do recognise that the functional relationship between time and money differs for everybody. In general the open source ecosystem does have a place for companies that specialise in building, maintaining and supporting system software to assist in cases like this.

Well I have no money, well certainly not the sort of money that would be need to pay anyone else to solve this problem for me. Time I have so I guess that I will have to see what sort of solution I can come up with.
