The logical replication is available, which allows non-backed up clusters to subscribe to databases where data masking policies are enabled. Logical replication allows publisher and subscriber databases to have their own or the same data masking policies.

In this scenario, the user must disable data masking on the publisher database whenever a subscription is created. This ensures that subscribers are able to obtain the original data (initial copy) instead of the masked version. Then, it is the user's responsibility to set masking policies to each subscribed database.

Take strong caution in publishing data masking's confidential tables (pgx_confidential_policies, pgx_confidential_columns, etc.) unless the user is publishing all tables of the database and wants to apply the same data masking's policies on the subscribed database for all of them.

Otherwise, as these confidential tables contain the masking policies for all tables of the database, confidential policies of unpublished tables may be unintentionally published. Additionally, it is not possible to apply different data masking policies on the subscriber database.
