<font face="sans-serif">Hello All,</font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">We are embarking down the open source
software stack road and we are looking to get off on the right foot with
PostGIS so I thought the best place to start would be to ask the list a
question. We are currently running Postgres 9.2.2 on RHEL 6.3. We
have already created 5 pairs (master/standby streaming) of Postgres database
cluster to support the various business functions. We currently do
not have the PostGIS extension enabled on any of our existing databases.</font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">My best practices questions involve
our existing suite of Postgres database clusters. What are the best
practice recommendations for enabling geo spatial features on existing
Postgres databases? Should we build new Postgres database cluster
servers, enable PostGIS on the new database clusters and extract and load
into the new environment for the existing databases that we what to geo
spatial enable or geo spatial our existing database by creating the PostGIS
extension on the existing database clusters? </font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">Are there cons to installing PostGIS
and enabling the geospacial extensions on a system with 5 schema's where
only 1 schema has a geospacial requirement??</font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">Thanks for everyone's input and please
let me know if you need any more details.</font>
