Hi all, Postgres-XC, read/write-scalable multi-master symmetric cluster based on PostgreSQL, version 1.0.1 has been released today.
This minor release is based on the latest PostgreSQL 9.1.5+alpha, meaning that all the patches in PostgreSQL 9.1 stable branch have been merged up to commit d10ddf4 (3rd of September 2012). You can download the source tarball directly from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/postgres-xc/files/latest/download<https://sourceforge.net/projects/postgres-xc/files/latest/download> Like PostgreSQL, this tarball contains all the HTML and man documentation. The documentation of 1.0, including release notes, is available here: http://postgres-xc.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/. Around 20 bugs have been fixed since 1.0.0, with in particular those fixes: - Applications like pgadmin had problems to connect to Postgres-XC server. - Drop of sequence was not managed correctly when its database was dropped. - etc. You can find all the details in the release notes here: http://postgres-xc.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/release-xc-1-0-1.html The project can be followed on Source Forge: http://postgres-xc .sourceforge.net/. And a couple of GIT repositories are used for development: - SourceForge: http://postgres-xc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p= postgres-xc/postgres-xc;a=summary - Github: https://github.com/postgres-xc/postgres-xc - Twitter: @PostgresXCBot, bot giving tweets about the commits in Postgres-XC GIT repository The project members are currently working hard on the next version of Postgres-XC that will include those features: - triggers (being implemented) - Merge with PostgreSQL 9.2 code (already committed) - RETURNING, WHERE CURRENT OF (being implemented) - Insure consistency of utilities that cannot run inside transaction block (ex: CREATE DATABASE safely insured in multiple nodes, being implemented) - Change table distribution type with ALTER TABLE (already committed) - Support for cursors (already committed) - Stuff related to node addition and deletion - and other things... The project is under the same license as PostgreSQL, and is managed under a single entity called "Postgres-XC Development Group".
