BZZZT. Correction to self: PostgreSQL has just CVS commit'ed their
database replication into the source tree this morning. Wow. I love how
time flies in open source worlds.
By the way, this discussion might open another can of good-stuff for
Interchange:
Application-level database clustering. Where it becomes easy to specify
multiple DSN's for a given IC "Database" depending on if it is a write
action or a read action. (i.e. all INSERTS use
masterdatabaseserver.domain.com/10.0.0.101, and all SELECT's use
slave_readonly_databaseserver.domain.com/10.0.0.102).
Would anyone like to comment on the feasability of adding that feature?
(easy,hard,impossible?)
