Oracle itself offers no replication. IBM DB2 itself offers no replication. Yet most of the products out there for Oracle, DB2 and PostgreSQL are far better than what I read here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication-features.html What a great example of "offering replication itself" ... *cough* I guess it'd be easier to port a well designed add-on like Slony-I to MySQL (now that they have triggers) than fixing their broken design. Not that I volunteer to do it, but Slony-I is released under BSD, anyone feel free to offer a good solution for MySQL.
