Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for the best solution for "Hot Standbys" where once the 
primary server fails, the standby will take over and act just like the 
master did. The standby must support INSERTS and UPDATES as well (once 
the master has failed)

Are there any solutions like this? Looking on the Postgresql site, all 
the standby solutions seem to be read only..

Thanks
