Golconde 0.4 Released

I am pleased to announce the first beta release of Golconde, 0.4.

Golconde is a queue based replication solution for PostgreSQL written in
Python 2.6.

It is designed to be loosely coupled and rely upon existing enterprise
messaging systems that have STOMP protocol support. Designed to scale easily
and with multi-data center implementations in mind, the application and
message queues for distribution live outside of the database. By decoupling
Golconde from PostgreSQL it is differentiated from existing replication
solutions, moving the workload from the database tier, where CPU, RAM and IO
overhead can be very expensive, to a commodity layer where the operational
cost for performing the data distribution work is much less expensive. In a
typical Golconde target database, the PostgreSQL operational overhead is
similar to the canonical database write workload.
