Hello everyone,
I have some postgres experience, but not so much with clusters/slony
Someone is suggesting a HA solution, and I do not have the time to
wrap my head around it right know, not to mention support.
Are you using clustering for redundancy or for sharding/scaling? For
redundancy, the current built-in replication is the easiest to set up
with no add-ons needed. You may find it very beneficial to engage a
PostgreSQL-savvy consultant or firm who has encountered your use-pattern
and can guide you.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a host that offers turnkey solutions
for clustered postgres hosting?
You might see what Heroku offers: https://postgres.heroku.com/
I haven't used them as we run all our own servers but they have been
kind hosts for our users-group in SF.
Our current provider answered my questions that they had heard of a
client "who did this once". They had no idea what slony means. So I am
not feeling so warm and fuzzy about them.
Good call.
Cheers,
Steve
