Hello,

I'm guessing since WebHostingTalk now has a second mirror - that it automatically grabs the info from a "main" mysql server so that they're constantly the same. Is this true?

I was wondering if it would be possible if I had 2 different servers to automatically mirror one mysql database and have it update instantly (or every 5 minutes or so) on another server.

Is it also possible to do this with PostgreSQL?

Howdy,

Here is an article (http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/tanoviceanu20000912.php3) from phpbuilder (www.phpbuilder.com) on MySQL replication.
