Hi All,
Can you tell me a way for table replication or sync or to achieve minimal downtime from dbserver1 to dbserver2 on Postgresql 9.5
Table Size: 160gb
4VCPU, 16gb RAM

We would like to minimise this downtime.It's more complicated if you want to keep your application running and writing to the db while migrating. There are trigger-level replication tools, like slony that can be used to stream changes to the new database, and then you switch over once you get both of them to parity, but there are some gotchas. You said the db is only 160GB, it depend a lot on what kind of schema we're talking about, but I imagine it wouldn't take long to just take the downtime and do a normal pg_upgrade.On Mon, Apr 1, 2019, 10:22 PM Adrian Klaver <adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:On 3/31/19 11:09 PM, Sathish Kumar wrote:

So what is creating the downtime now?
In addition to other suggestions you might want to take a look at:
