Failover Manager (EFM) is a tool for managing Postgres database clusters, enabling high availability of primary-standby deployment architectures using streaming replication. Failover Manager provides a Postgres primary database node automatic failover to a standby database node in the event of a software or hardware failure. You can use Failover Manager with PostgreSQL or EDB Postgres Advanced Server.
