I am *expecting 1000+ hits to my PostgreSQL DB* and I doubt my standalone DB will be able to handle it.
So I want to *scale out by adding more servers to share the load*. For this, I want to do clustering. I am *curious to know how clustering works in PostgreSQL.* (I don't want to know how to setup cluster - as of now. Just want to know how clustering works). When I look at some of the content available while googling, I am getting more and more confused, as I find that in most of the sites, clustering is used interchangeably with replication. *My purpose is scale out to handle more load, not high availability.* Can any one please help me with the details or guide me to use urls. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/How-clustering-for-scale-out-works-in-PostgreSQL-tp5768917.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - performance mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
