Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator 8.0.2 1.4 is the latest
generation of the PostgreSQL replication engine from Command
Prompt, Inc. As with any major software release, this new
version includes bug fixes and new features. The major new
features included in this release are:
Point In Time Recovery (PITR) the ability to bring the database
back from backup to a particular point in time.
Table Spaces. The ability to partition the database data onto
different physical paritions for better performance.
Win32. Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator now runs natively on
Windows2000 and above.
.Net. Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator now ships with a native C#
.Net driver.
plPerl and plPython the ability to natively write server side
procedures in Python and Perl.
Live promotion. The ability to promote a slave to a master
without the need to restart the database. Non blocking full
dump. When a slave requires a full sync with the master,
replicator no longer requires an exclusive lock on the master.
This new feature allows full dumps to occur without effecting
normal operation.
Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator is an asynchronous replication
system designed to be WAN and faulty connection tolerant. It is
100% community PostgreSQL compatible. Unlike other replication
solutions, Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator is part of the
database, does not require triggers or additional sql
modifications for use. Replicator uses a distributed
TransactionLog system to keep track of updates produced by the
Master database. The system allows for multiple Slaves to
receive updates in either a continuous or batch mode.
Mammoth PostgreSQL from Command Prompt, Inc. is a robust,
reliable, SQL-compatible Object Relational Database Management
System (ORDBMS). It is designed to give small to medium size
businesses the power, performance, and open-standard support
they desire.
Written in "C" as an addition to the PostgreSQL database
Mammoth PostgreSQL Replicator delivers a new level of
reliability and provides that last missing key feature for 24/7
PostgreSQL usage.
PostgreSQL is the worlds most reliable and extensible Open
Source database. Unlike its primary Open Source competitor it
is truly ACID compliant and offers features such as triggers,
stored procedures, domain constraints and an open development
model.
Command Prompt, Inc., provides support, custom programming, and
services for PostgreSQL. Service contracts, as well as time and
materials support are available, allowing for single-point
accountability for a customer's database solution.
