Haas: New Features Coming in PostgreSQL 10 Here's an
extensive summary of new features in the upcoming PostgreSQL 10 releasefrom Robert Haas. " PostgreSQL has had physical replication -- often
called streaming replication -- since version 9.0, but this requires
replicating the entire database, cannot tolerate writes in any form on the
standby server, and is useless for replicating across versions or database
systems. PostgreSQL has had logical decoding -- basically change capture
-- since version 9.4, which has been embraced with enthusiasm, but it could
not be used for replication without an add-on of some sort. PostgreSQL 10
adds logical replication which is very easy to configure and which works at
table granularity, clearly a huge step forward. It will copy the initial
data for you and then keep it up to date after that." |
