Brothers in Arms - How to Make MySQL and PostgreSQL Work Together

The world is becoming increasingly complex for professionals working with data. The amount and diversity of data are on a level never before seen, and we often have to use different tools to store the increasing amount of data, for instance, MySQL and PostgreSQL.

It brings us another problem: how to make this ecosystem work properly? Is it possible to make them talk to each other? Is it possible to replicate from MySQL to PostgreSQL or vice-versa?

This presentation aims to do that, make MySQL talk to PostgreSQL and make them work together in a heterogeneous setup. We will see different tools and techniques like PostgreSQL Logical Decoding, SymmetricDS, pg_chameleon, Tungsten Replicator and in the end, we will have a heterogeneous setup with MySQL and PostgreSQL replicating from each other.
