Supported Postgres versions

Anything on or after Postgres 12

Enable Logical Replication

You don't need to follow the below steps if the settings wal_level. This setting should mostly be pre-configured if you are migrating from another data replication tool.

  1. Click on the Server parameters section

  1. Edit the wal_level to logical

  1. This change would require a server restart. So restart when requested.

Add PeerDB Cloud IPs to Firewall

If you are using PeerDB Cloud, please follow the below steps to add peerdb ips to your network.

  1. Go to the Networking tab and add the public IPs of your PeerDB Cloud instance to the Firewall

Creating PeerDB User and Granting permissions

Connect to your Azure Flexible Server Postgrees through the admin user and run the below commands:

  1. Create a Postgres user for exclusively PeerDB.

    1.        CREATE USER peerdb_user PASSWORD 'some-password';

  2. Provide read-only access to the schema from which you are replicating tables to the peerdb-user. Below example shows setting up permissions for the public schema. If you want to grant access to multiple schemas, you can run these three commands for each schema.

    1.        GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA "public" TO peerdb_user;
       GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA "public" TO peerdb_user;
       ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES IN SCHEMA "public" GRANT SELECT ON TABLES TO peerdb_user;

  3. Grant replication access to this user:

    1.     ALTER ROLE peerdb_user REPLICATION;

  4. Create a publication that you'll be using for creating the MIRROR (replication) in future.

    1.    CREATE PUBLICATION peerdb_publication FOR TABLE table1, table2, table3....;

  5. Set wal_sender_timeout to 0 for peerdb_user

        ALTER ROLE peerdb_user SET wal_sender_timeout to 0;

Create Azure Flexible Server Postgres Peer in PeerDB

Through the PeerDB UI, create the Flexible Postgres Peer using the peerdb_user that you created in the previous step.
