Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator 1.4 Released

Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator is an asynchronous replication system designed to be WAN and faulty connection tolerant. It is 100% community PostgreSQL compatible. Unlike other replication solutions, Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator is part of the database, does not require triggers or additional sq modifications for use. Replicator uses a distributed TransactionLog system to keep track of updates produced by the Master database. The system allows for multiple Slaves to receive updates in either a continuous or batch mode.

(PRWEB) January 14, 2005 -- Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator 1.4 is the latest generation of the PostgreSQL replication engine from Command Prompt, Inc. As with any major software release, this new version includes bug fixes and new features. The major new features included in this release are:

Live promotion. The ability to promote a slave to a master without the need to restart the database. Non blocking full dump. When a slave requires a full sync with the master, replicator no longer requires an exclusive lock on the master. This new feature allows full dumps to occur without effecting normal operation.
