Hi guys, We have a PG database with more than 400 GB of data. At this moment, a cron runs each ten minutes and updates about 10 000 lines with complex algorithms in PHP. Each time the cron runs, the website is almost down because some queries have to make an update on the FULL table... Therefore, I'm asking if it's possible to duplicate my main database on a slave server in order to run these cron on this second server... then, replicate these changes on the main database (master). Which replication is the best in this case ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/warm-standby.html ? Do you have any links or tutorial which explain this kind of operation ?
I should have been clearer in my original post. What you want is not possible using the procedures found at the link you posted. What you are looking for is Master to Master replication. This is not something I have done, so I am not the person to offer detailed advice on that particular style of replication. I do know that this list sees a lot of activity with regard to BDR(http://bdr-project.org/docs/stable/index.html) which provides Master to Master replication.
Thanks a lot !
