certainly, if your goal is a pgreplicator style multi-master async,
this
is
correct, as you have to make decisions about the direction
of
data
flow, id generation, and conflict resolution up front.
if you
want slony-I style single master/multi slave, you don't have
to
do so
much advance thinking as records are only being inserted
into
the
system on the single master.
