QUESTION: Can I still use postgresql Physical replication after enabled pglogical?
1: I have two main sever in different geolocation which is using pglogical for bi-directional replications 2: I want to have a full stream physical replica on each main server's location as hotstandby. Can I still use the postgresql's built in physical replica method to do so? Or is it necessary.
I tried to do it, but somehow I did not manage to see the data in the replica postgres. So want to get some ideas/confidence to check before I dig into it.
Thanks in advance.
I have never used pglogical for BDR, but when I use it for postgres major version upgrades, usually the topology looks like:
- Old writer
- Old readers (physically replicating from old writer)
- New/future writer (logically replicating from old writer)
- New readers (physically replicating from new/future writer)
So the answer to the question of whether you can have a hot standby replicating physically from a pglogical subscriber is: yes.
