Just an idea. Anyone interested in buying some solar hardware to play with?

Might be a fun project to work on. I wonder if we could convince some grant funder to give us money?

Would this approach help with the database replication? https://hevodata.com/learn/postgresql-sync-replication/#Method2

I think that is only for synchronizing read-only instances off a main centralized one that is being written on. That can help with scaling, but having a central point of failure that needs to be available 24/7 would be kind off the opposite of the idea of the solar protocol.

Maybe https://github.com/citusdata/citus#what-is-citus ?

Yeah, maybe. I didn't know this project before and would need to look into the details a bit more. Bookmarked ;)
