Seamless and Scalable Streaming of Query results with PeerDB

What's this blog post about?

PeerDB is an efficient tool for streaming query results from one data store to another, offering solutions to common real-world use cases such as syncing customer-specific data or continuously streaming transformed transactional data. The process of building a scalable data pipeline across data stores can be challenging due to complex data-type mapping, reliable synchronization tracking, fault-tolerance, maintaining data freshness, and resource management. PeerDB simplifies this process by handling all the heavy lifting with just a few SQL commands, saving multiple months of engineering resources. It is highly customizable, allowing users to run any SELECT query supported by PostgreSQL for transformation purposes. Supported source data stores include PostgreSQL, while targets include Snowflake, BigQuery, S3, and PostgreSQL. PeerDB's documentation provides detailed instructions on setting up real-time streaming of query results from PostgreSQL.
