In today's digital landscape, where downtime is simply not an option, achieving high availability (HA) in PostgreSQL is paramount. But what does HA really mean in the context of PostgreSQL, and how can you overcome its inherent limitations to ensure uninterrupted service? Download the whitepaper, " EDB Postgres Distributed: The Next Generation of High Availability” to take a deeper dive into the components of an “Always On” database. |
Here's a glimpse of what you'll discover inside: - Defining High Availability in Postgres: Gain a comprehensive understanding of HA concepts and their significance in PostgreSQL.
- Replication in Postgres: Explore the history of replication in PostgreSQL and uncover the limitations of traditional approaches like logical replication for HA.
- Overcoming Postgres HA Limitations with EDB Postgres Distributed: Learn how EDB Postgres Distributed revolutionizes HA in PostgreSQL, what sets it apart, and how it addresses the shortcomings of conventional solutions.
- Always-On Architectures: Delve into the key components of Always-On Architectures and understand how they work to solve critical HA challenges:
- What happens when the Lead Master fails?
- How do you switch traffic from Lead Master to Shadow Master for maintenance operations?
- What happens in case of node or data center failures?
By exploring real-world scenarios and practical solutions, you'll gain valuable insights into architecting robust, resilient, and highly available PostgreSQL environments. |
