BDR Documentation

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group

This book is the official documentation of BDR 0.9.0 for use with PostgreSQL 9.4 (or the BDR-patched version of it). It has been written by the PostgreSQL and BDR developers and other volunteers in parallel to the development of the BDR software. It describes all the functionality that the current version of BDR officially supports.

BDR is developed by the BDR team at 2ndQuadrant. Multiple customers contribute funding and other resources to make BDR development possible. 2ndQuadrant continues to fund the ongoing development of BDR to meet internal needs and those of customers.
