Achieving High Availability with PostgreSQL

Setup and Deploy Enterprise-Grade High Availability for PostgreSQL Clusters

Critical business applications require availability of their backend database cluster at all times. 2ndQuadrant provides enterprise-grade solutions for both Single Master and Multi-Master architectures. These solutions allow deployment of Highly Available PostgreSQL with Rolling Upgrades, Fast Failovers, Point-in-Time Recovery, and more. 

The Single Master architecture provides High Availability of up to four 9s, while the BDR-based architecture provides AlwaysOn Availability of up to six 9s. These architectures are designed based on industry best practices and provide high levels of reliability for production use.

High Availability Options

1. AlwaysOn PostgreSQL with BDR

Diagram: AlwaysOn PostgreSQL. A reference architecture by 2ndQuadrant known as Trusted PostgreSQL Architectures (TPA) which is ideal for businesses with requirements of high availability in multi-master clusters.

AlwaysOn PostgreSQL with BDR offers up to six 9s of availability and is designed for geographically distributed databases, minimizing latency, and providing geofencing capabilities. Based on ground-breaking BDR technology, it allows Advanced Clustering and Scaling of a database cluster as well as Automatic Conflict Resolution for DDL and DML replication. 

Whitepapers from 2ndQuadrant will help you develop a deeper knowledge about PostgreSQL, its tools, and highlight some of the common issues faced by day-to-day Postgres users and possible solutions to overcome them.Download Whitepaper: Multi-Master Replication in PostgreSQL

2. Highly Available PostgreSQL

Diagram: Highly Available PostgreSQL Clusters - 2ndQuadrant’s recommended reference architectures (Trusted PostgreSQL Architectures) for businesses operating a single master with High Availability requirement. This architecture utilizes three open source PostgreSQL extensions: PgBouncer, repmgr, and Barman.

Highly Available PostgreSQL clusters provide up to four 9s of availability. Whether a planned switchover or unplanned failure, the Failover solution ensures the database cluster remains available for your application. Additionally, the Highly Available PostgreSQL cluster comes with a built-in backup strategy and recovery plan.

Whitepapers from 2ndQuadrant will help you develop a deeper knowledge about PostgreSQL, its tools, and highlight some of the common issues faced by day-to-day Postgres users and possible solutions to overcome them.

High Availability Features

Disaster Recovery to Ensure Continued Availability

To maximize the availability of business-critical solutions, a comprehensive Disaster Recovery Strategy is crucial. Planning for Disaster Recovery preempts data loss. Achieve your Recovery Time and Recovery Point Objectives with solutions built in to our High Availability architectures. Barman – Backup & Recovery Manager from 2ndQuadrant – is the best tool to ensure continued availability. Discover how Barman can help you secure your business critical PostgreSQL databases.

Rapid Switchover And Load Balancing

Load balancing is essential in achieving enterprise-grade High Availability with PostgreSQL. It ensures that no single node is overwhelmed with data traffic, resulting in optimal performance across all available nodes. Our AlwaysOn solution also provides the ability for Rapid Switchover by using load balancing tools to quickly promote a Shadow Node attached to a Master that may no longer be available.

Database Security

Hardening your database is essential in order to comply with regulations such as GDPR, PCI, and DSS. 2ndQuadrant provides high availability environments with protection against vulnerabilities, covering your PostgreSQL from operating system to schema level. The trusted architectures cover security aspects such as user management, network, data encryption, and more. A Security Audit by 2ndQuadrant will identify and address security threats to harden your PostgreSQL database and infrastructure.

24/7 Production Support

Database downtime can cost a business millions of dollars.. To minimize business risk and ensure peace of mind that if an issue arises it will be handled quickly, 2ndQuadrant provides 24/7 Production Support for its high availability architectures. Our world-renowned support is a cost-effective and scalable solution with a guaranteed response time of 15 minutes and bug fix of 24 hours. 2ndQuadrant provides different plans for 24/7 Production Support, all guaranteeing fast response and resolution times.
