Re: Ora2pg Delta Migration: Oracle to PostgreSQL
Hi, Has anyone tried delta/incremental data migration for Oracle to PostgreSQL > using Ora2pg? Or what are the best options to run delta migration for > Oracle to PostgreSQL? There are a few ways of dealing with it when using Ora2Pg. *Option 1 : *Ora2Pg configuration file allows us to pass the conditions(predicates) to be applied to a table while migrating the data from a table. So, if there is a way to filter the data since the last full load, you can pass the condition to the configuration file, for each table. This is some work for sure but it works great if you are able to identify those conditions such as creation_date or last_updated_date, let's say. *Option2 :* Ora2Pg is currently CDC ready. What this means is that, Ora2Pg can provide the SCN at which the table copy has been initiated. Technically, we provide the SCN to the CDC tools or custom CDC techniques to continue replication since that SCN. *Option 2.1 :* Leverage Debezium, an Open Source solution to perform continuous replication from Oracle to PostgreSQL from the SCN produced by Ora2Pg for that table. So, it is all about Ora2Pg + Debezium It might be initially challenging, but you will get there. Regards, Avi Vallarapu, CEO, HexaCluster Corp.

Re: Planet Postgres and the curse of AI
Hi, As someone who has taken days to publish each blog upon so many reviews, corrections and edits while attempting to make it as best/informative and as perfect as possible, it might seem slightly frustrating when we see some AI generated content, especially when it is misleading readers. However, I do agree with Lawrence that it is impossible to prove whether it is written by AI or a human. AI can make mistakes and it might mistakenly point out that a blog is written by AI (which I know is difficult to implement). I see Moderators spending some time reviewing content and accepting or warning if it is not related to Postgres. AI may be adopted to help us score whether an article is related to Postgres and decline the submission/blog feed. But, it is very impossible to use AI or some strategy to identify whether it is written by AI or human. People may also use AI generated Images in their blogs, and they may be meaningful for their article. Is it only the content or also the images ? It might get too complicated while implementing some rules. Ultimately, Humans do make mistakes and we shouldn't discourage people assuming it is AI that made that mistake.
