Hello Dimitri

To clarify the requirement: much like you, we're not looking for synchronous replication, which would be too slow. The branches and central server can be different for about 5 to 10 minutes. But the branches need to be able to function independently if the network or central goes down. Londiste looks interesting, though the documentation seems a bit sparse. Is it really that simple to set up, or is there a fair amount of trial and error in the setup process?

Best wishes

Rob

    I'm working on some projects here with this very need (and same
    scale), and I
    plan to use londiste (master/slaves asynchronous solution) replication
    solution, which I already use in production on some other project.

    The fact is that we want the "branches" to still be fully
    available in case of
    network or central server failure, so we don't buy into synchronous
    replication; which is not available yet into PostgreSQL as far as
    I know,
    even if one of the basics building-block alternatives is provided
    into -core,
    namely Two Phase Commit.
      http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/sql-prepare-transaction.html

    You'll find londiste documentation at both following places, the
    latter is
    up-to-date with last 2.1.6 release, the former I'm not sure about it.

    Hope this helps, regards,
