Re: Pgsql 16 to 14 using builtin logical

I have tested it around 3 - 4 years ago.
Logical replication is backward compatible as well.

So 16 to 14 does work :)

Hi Durgamahesh,

Yes, you can replicate a PostgreSQL 16 database to PostgreSQL 14 using 
built-in logical replication. PostgreSQL's built-in logical replication 
allows for replicating data between different versions of PostgreSQL, 
provided the source version is higher than or equal to the target version.


I am not following or maybe it's just your idea of what is the source 
and what is the target. In the common case of upgrading a database to a 
newer version the logical replication would be from the lower source to 
the higher target.

Asad

Hi

Can we replicate 16 to 14 using builtin logical similarly pglogical?

So how does that fit with your statement?:

"PostgreSQL's built-in logical replication allows for replicating data 
between different versions of PostgreSQL, provided the source version is 
higher than or equal to the target version."




Replicating from a higher version (PostgreSQL 16) to a lower one 
(PostgreSQL 14) is possible but unconventional and not usually done for 
upgrades.
