Question

Is there any way to set up replication packets for managed (PostgreSQL) database?

I’m looking into self-hosting the Musicbrainz database (https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-server) which has an option for replication packets to periodically update the data, but I’m not 100% sure if that’s possible with a managed database. Anyone have previous experience?

Hi there,

I was not able to find the exact database requirements in their documentation, so the best course of action would be to try and set that up and see if there are any blockers and go from there. Do you by any chance have a link to the documentation where they go over the process?

An alternative option is to go with a self-managed Postgres installed on a Droplet, that way would know that you would have full access and would be able to make any changes that are needed.

Best,

Bobby
