Has POSTGRES been employed in any replicated data applications or
research?  It is my (limited) understanding that it would first be
necessary to expand POSTGRES to allow the distribution of the data
over multiple servers.  Then a replica control algorithm (i.e. a
consensus protocol) could be added on top of the concurrency control
algorithm (locking) that is already present.

Is anyone aware of any work along these lines?

Thank you,

Larry Raab.
