Hi, We have a webapp backed by a single PostgreSQL server and I'd like to add a second primarily for availability. I figure if we can load balance reads too then why not.
Having read over the HA docs/matrix, I'm considering using 9.0's hot standby with pgpool-II to automatically balance reads without having to adjust our webapp to split the reads/writes. Firstly, is this a sound setup and does anyone using it have any comments fore/against, gotchas? Secondly, is there a companion tool to achieve this with pgbouncer? Note I have nothing against pgpool, just curious as we're already using pgbouncer in production. Thanks!
