One thing I do in production is to use a DNS CNAME to point to the
desired origin, so I can change the CNAME destination and just drop
the old connection, standby PostgreSQL will catchup in the new otigin
without restart. Create the replication slot beforehand in the new
origin is useful and, obviously, do not forget to drop it in the old
one.
