FrontBase supports both clustering and replication. Replication defines a read-write master and n-many read-only slaves. Clustering defines multiple read-write peers. I have used replication, but not clustering, so I can't speak to how well it works.

Well, I don't know that Frontbase does clustering (as opposed to replication). Anyone?. I think the Bizgres people (or is it EnterpriseDB) are working on clustering support in the way you mean.

Hi!

That's not real clustering, it's replication. As far as I understand, "real" clustering does not require a master server, and allows write-operations on any of the cluster nodes. Unfortunately, PgSQL still does not support real clustering. Of course, this may not be a real issue for many usages, but if your app starts to grow in clients, it may be a bottleneck at a point of time.

Postgresql has various clustering options: SLony, pgpool, etc. They don't believe in a one size fits all solution.
