Description: [OBSOLETE] Postgres connection pool, load balancer and write-replicator
 DBBalancer is no longer maintained upstream and is increasingly
 difficult to continue to package for Debian.  A much better
 solution is to use PGPool which suffers from none of these
 deficiencies and is a better and more easily configured
 system in any case.
 .
 This package now recommends PGPool as a result.
 .
 DBBalancer provides facilities to transparently implement:
   - pooling of connections
   - load balancing across multiple backends
   - write replication to multiple backends
 .
 DBBalancer is a middleware daemon that sits in between database clients, like
 C, C++, TCL, Java JDBC, Perl DBI, etc programs and a database server. Currently
 the only server supported is PostgreSQL, but the architecture is open to
 embrace more servers in future.
 .
