Past, Present, and Future: Logical Decoding and Replication in PostgreSQL | POSETTE 2026
PostgreSQL logical replication evolved from 9.4 API primitives to native core support, heading toward multi-master.
“We'll go from its earliest building blocks in PostgreSQL 9.4 all the way to the multi-master distributed future that's being actively built right now.”
A POSETTE 2026 conference talk traces the history of PostgreSQL logical decoding and replication from version 9.4 through PG 18 and toward future multi-master architectures. It is a database engineering deep-dive with no meaningful AI industry signal.
