The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/warm-standby.html Description:
Hello, The documentation page about Log-Shipping Standby Servers after describing that there are file-based log shipping and record-based log shipping (streaming replication) states: "It should be noted that log shipping is asynchronous, i.e., the WAL records are shipped after transaction commit.". This statement is misleading because the same page includes a section about configuring synchronous streaming replication. To avoid confusion, I think it makes sense to specify that record-based log shipping can be configured as either asynchronous or synchronous.
