Inconsistent documentation describing DDL replication

Open chris-wilson-coop opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I'm confused about whether or not this tool supports DDL replication.

The below screenshot shows pglogical being described as supporting Transparent DDL Replication on this page https://www.2ndquadrant.com/en/resources/pglogical/

However, this page says that DDL replication is not supported.

Have I misunderstood some difference between these two, or is the documentation inconsistent?

I believe you will find that 2ndQ's proprietary product more seamlessly replicates DDL than this open soure pglogical2 project. In any event, you must be careful and thoughtful when changing schemas for tables that are logically replicated to various places. Your mileage may vary. :-)
