Hi
I am used to using Oracle (15 years) and MySQL(5 years), but I am planning
to move an existing application from MySQL to Postgres. The reasons are very
simple,
* New requirements means we need views, or a significant re-write
* Better query/index performance essential.
* Postgres and MySQL share a very common implementation of SQL-92, and
what is missing can easily be implanted in functions
The only negative issue is replication. I have checked several Postgres
Replication options and unsure which way to go. Can anyone recommend a
replication option that meets the following:
* Does not use triggers. Usually slow, and one action that modifies
several records, can trigger many actions on slaves/peers.
* Does use WAL, or other log, so that SQL DDL/DML is copied to
slave/peer, rather than the result of the DDL/DML.
* Must provide master-master and master-slave replication
* Simple to configure and maintain
Many Thanx
Simon Windsor
