Hi, We have just released an add-on to PostgreSQL supporting the GORDA Architecture and Programming Interface (GAPI). This opens up support for DBMS independent replication middleware, aimed at eager and multi-master replication in clusters and WANs.
The implementation of the GAPI is achieved in two steps. First, a set of patches to the PostgreSQL server and a plugin provide the necessary functionality with minimal intrusion. Then the GAPI is exposed in a standalone Java process. Note that this is not yet a complete replication solution. Instead, we seek feedback on exposed features, their rendering as Java interfaces, and their implementation on PostgreSQL. Downloads of source code and documentation are available at: http://gorda.di.uminho.pt/community There you will soon find the same interface implemented on Apache Derby and a replication suite based on group-communication. We welcome the comments and suggestions of PostgreSQL hackers. Best regards, Alfranio Junior. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
