Re: High availability and load balancing ...

[Sunil N Shinde <Sunil.Shinde@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Venkata.

 

I am considering latest version now i.e. 9.4 or 9.5 on Linux 6.

Is there any difference in setup from 9.1 to 9.5?

               

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sunil N Shinde

I need to do the setup for High availability function.

Also want to implement load balancing for 02 nodes.

 

You will have to build streaming replication which was introduced in PostgreSQL-9.0

 

I think PGPool will be require for that. Can I use PGPool without cost.

 

pgpool-II is an open source tool which can be used for connection pooling and load balancing.

 

 Can I get the basic steps to do this setup?

 

                Database        --          Postgresql 9.1

             OS                 --          Linux 6

 

Below is the link which explains the basic steps to setup "streaming replication"

 

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/warm-standby.html

 

By the way, version 9.1 is very old and will reach end-of-life soon. You are 4 major versions behind, did you consider using latest version ?
