Maybe its not clear in the documentation but the streaming replication feature isn't just one year old. The core parts of it are actually 7 years old, and they are definitely battle tested. The slightly newer parts changed the transport logic to stream rather than use file-by-file. The features relevant here are Point in Time Recovery (8.0), Warm Standby (8.2), pg_standby (8.3), Bgwriter during recovery (8.4) -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
