The maximum table size and maximum number of columns can be quadrupled

One limitation is that indexes can not be created on columns longer
than about 2,000 characters. Fortunately, such indexes are rarely
needed. Uniqueness is best guaranteed using another column that is an
MD5 hash of the long column, and full text indexing allows for
searching of words within the column.

There are also commercial and hardware-based replication solutions

4.20) Why are my table and column names not recognized in my query?
The most common cause is the use of double-quotes around table or
column names during table creation. When double-quotes are used, table
and column names (called identifiers) are stored case-sensitive,
meaning you must use double-quotes when referencing the names in a
query. Some interfaces, like pgAdmin, automatically double-quote
identifiers during table creation. So, for identifiers to be
recognized, you must either:
* Avoid double-quoting identifiers when creating tables
* Use only lowercase characters in identifiers
* Double-quote identifiers when referencing them in queries
