Re: Level of replication support?

Hello,

There are two heavily supported and active replication projects.

1. Slony - http://www.slony.info
2. Mammoth Replicator - http://www.commandprompt.com/

Slony is Open Source and uses triggers and a replication schema to
replicate data.

Mammoth Replicator is commercial and uses a transaction log and a master
control process to replicate data.

Slony replicates data every (10?) transactions.
Mammoth Replicator replicates every transaction.

Mammoth is older than Slony and backed by my company Command Prompt, Inc.

Neither is slated to be "integrated" with PostgreSQL as they are both
good products that serve different purposes.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
