Postgres-BDR Replication

Bi-Directional Replication for PostgreSQL (Postgres-BDR, or BDR) is the first open source multi-master replication system for PostgreSQL to reach full production status. Developed by 2ndQuadrant, BDR is specifically designed for use in geographically distributed clusters, using highly efficient asynchronous logical replication, supporting anything from 2 to more than 48 nodes in a distributed database.



Organizations with geographically distributed databases will understand the complexity of replication and the goal of achieving efficient and accurate replicas of data. Unlike other solutions, BDR doesn't rely on using triggers to collect changes and insert them into a queue table. Instead it processes the WAL using the changeset extraction mechanism developed by 2ndQuadrant for version 9.4 of PostgreSQL. This solution avoids the write amplification involved in trigger-based solutions.

Performance

Postgres-BDR has some very impressive results, which you can view [here].

Postgres-BDR vs Other Open Source Replication Solutions

Postgres-BDR has a lower impact on the masters(s) than trigger-based replication solutions. There is no write-amplification, as it does not require triggers to write to queue tables in order to replicate writes.
