Hi,

I have to questions regarding mission critical applications on top of postgres:
Is a way to run multiple postgresql servers on different machines that
access the same data? Or is there any other way to do load-balancing for
postgres? Is it possible to backup data while postgres is actively serving
users?

thanks,

Hello,

There is a replication server available for Postgres. It is not as complete
as some but still pretty good.
