Hi again,

All the postgresql clustering solutions are 3rd party and it's very hard to gauge what the "production readiness" of any particular version is. In particular,

btw -- pgcluster = spend an entire day dorking around trying to figure out why things aren't working. FrontBase =

set default database [EMAIL PROTECTED];
create cluster;
add member [EMAIL PROTECTED];     // ... creates and replicates over to Host2
add member [EMAIL PROTECTED];     // ... creates and replicates over to Host3
start cluster;

and change your connection string to:
jdbc:FrontBase://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Out of interest, is this fallback hosts list a general option for any jdbc connection dictionary? Or is this something frontbase adds?

replication in FrontBase is even easier, btw.

However, FrontBase is not the fastest database. PGSQL handed FB a beating for several operations (I think maybe this is PG's MVCC locking system showing wins? I'm not really sure though ...). I have read in previous posts (Chuck sent me a link to it a couple weeks ago), however, that shows that FB comes back with a vengeance for REALLY REALLY big databases where all the others fell over.

Thanks very much for all the info Mike. That's very useful.

with regards,
