Migrating from MySQL to PostgreSQL

This talk shares hindsights about the why and the how of that migration, what problems couldn’t be solved without moving away and how the solution now looks. The tools used for migrating away the data, the methods and will detail the new architecture. And the new home: in the cloud!

On the technical side of things, we discusses MySQL, mysqltocsv, pgloader, pljava, Google Protocol Buffers, pgbouncer, plproxy, PostgreSQL, pghashlib, walmgr, streaming replication. And Amazon hosting facilities too (EBS for starters).
