Summary

Aiven for PostgreSQL has introduced a new feature that automatically recreates logical replication slots during failovers or controlled switchovers. This eliminates the need to manually create and connect to new logical replication slots, which can cause data gaps or require full database resyncs. The automatic recreation of replication slots ensures seamless continuity for downstream subscribers when a primary node goes down.
