The Best Postgresql Load Balancing Solution
Hi,
i was searching for a load balancing solution for postgres, I found some ready to use software like PGCluster, Slony, pgpool and others.
It would really be nice if someone knows which one is the best taking in consideration that i have an already running application that i need to load balance.
I would also like to know if someone has used Red Hat Cluster and GFS for implementing postgresql Load balancing solution. I have alreay used that for implementing a mail load balancing solution with 2 sendmail servers running on 2 different machines but sharing the same storage.
Thanks for any help.

It really depends on what exactly you're trying to achieve, as each
has it's own strengths and weaknesses. If you don't have time to
fully research the options, you might want to hire a consultant to
help you out (there's a big, fat list of consultants on the website).
