Hmm. I just spent some time looking at #11828, and I don't think the "syncing one db at a time" will work. The first problem this causes is with anything that subscribes to the post sync signal. Content type does this, so it can create permissions. If we sync one db at a time, I don't see how

I've spent a little time using this branch and looking at the possibility of using it with my project. Below is a short list of problems and ponies that I have encountered (or want). 1. It'd be awesome if we could mark certain databases as slaves. Inserts / deletes / creates / drops would only r

So over the weekend I've been thinking about the problem of the two potential use cases for following relationship fields in Django models: 1) All (or most) models exist on every db instance and the data is sharded somehow or 2) Different models exist on different db instances but all data for a p

Hey all, It seems GSOC has finally come to a close and so I'm giving my final status update as a part of GSOC (but I'm not going anywhere!). When we last left off I had just gotten Oracle support working, however after reviewing with Russ we agreed that the solution was a good bit too hacky, and
