Hi Everyone

I want primary and secondary running on CentOS7 in sync with primary and
secondary running on RHEL. Is it possible by any chance that postgresql
allows.

I have done some analysis and came to know that Kafka tool can do this but
any provision from postgresql?

Thanks,
Wasim

Technically, yes, but I recommend against that because CentOS7 and
the unspecified RHEL version might have different glibc versions (thus
different collations, and so PKs, FKs, queries, etc might fail).

OTOH, *logical* replication would work just fine between CentOS7 and your
unspecified RHEL version.  (Lots of metadata updates would complicate that,
though.)

If you mean you want to sync something on CentOS7 with something on
RHEL8 or RHEL9, that's pretty dangerous because glibc's collations
will not be the same [1].  You might get away with doing logical
replication, but don't try physical replication.

yes you can configure

1 option is to configure stream replication but in such scenario you can
only perform fail-over.
2 option is to configure repmgr in which you can perform switchover in
postgreSQL

To be a little pedantic, you *can* perform switchover, but there are a number of steps to it, and I wouldn't recommend trying it.

Hello,

You don't need any complex steps.
Just made streaming replication. If you want to migrate your database from
centos to Redhat, close the apps and then make a failover on your replica
server.
Have a nice day.
