Hello! I am a happy PostgreSQL user, but I have never tried PG replication at all. Based on my vague recollections concerning the past, MySQL used to have the advantage of having a pretty stable and working master-slave replication when PG did not have such a thing. But PG has been more SQL-compliant, has had foreign keys forever, and in general, I guess PG has had a more advanced feature set available. I have followed the progress of PostgreSQL regarding replication just occasionally, but not very actively. Master-slave replication is now officially supported in the newest releases, maybe has been for a long time, I am not sure. In any case it is not my intention to spark a heated discussion about the merits of MySQL/MariaDB vs PostgreSQL. All I am asking is maybe hearing some observations of PG admins out there. To be concrete, if I use PG 10.x master-slave replication in production, is it very reliable when set up properly? Any practical experiences? Well, I suppose it *must* be reliable, but I am interested in hearing of possible problems, too. Thanks for the information. Best regards, Unto Sten
