Jeff, first, thanks for the response and I'm heartened by what you say. If I could suggest, please look at ease of configuring replication in MongoDB. If you make it that easy, even if it's just for the JSON stores, I know that maybe you can't make it easy for relational tables, I will move my product to PostgreSQL in a heartbeat. I have used and promoted PostgreSQL throughout my career, but I'm currently stuck with having to deliver HA in a product for redistribution to customers and Slony can't cut it for our use cases, it's too complicated. I think the key is that we are a vendor and we need to provide a database with our products, so it's not me that's responsible for configuring HA, it's our users. And replication is what I'm concerned about 90% of the time, not necessarily horizontally scaling out (i.e. we're not using sharding in 90% of our cases, we just need HA).
