As observed up front, the streaming replication built into PostgreSQL, ! which has progressed since its beginnings in version 8.1, can satisfy ! some users' replication requirements.

As observed up front, the streaming replication built into ! PostgreSQL, which has progressed since its beginnings in version 8.1, ! can satisfy some users' replication requirements. For those with ! requirements that are not compatible with its strictures, replication ! systems like Slony-I will continue to be useful. ! !

PostgreSQL 9.4 introduced Logical Replication, which uses ! logical decoding of WAL data as an alternative to trigger-based data ! capture. In the long run, this strategy seems likely to be more ! performant than Slony, and to eventually obsolesce Slony for many use ! cases not involving upgrades between PostgreSQL versions. ! However, Logical Replication/Logical Decoding will only support ! recent versions of PostgreSQL (and inter-PostgreSQL-version support ! may be aspirational moreso than actual), so if you have a database ! running on 9.3 or earlier, there is a likelihood that ! short-outage-upgrades will require something like Slony that runs ! against a diverse set of versions of PostgreSQL. ! --- Slony-I 2.0.5 Released
