Elixir Nitpicks
What do you mean testing with processes?
I won't suggest these are the best written tests, but I test various processes, supervisors, etc like this:

PostgreSQL Is Enough
You don’t send the entire WAL, just what you subscribe to - and you can even filter via SQL: https://github.com/cpursley/walex?tab=readme-ov-file#publica...

Fly Postgres, Managed by Supabase
What we do is much if the business logic in Postgres. But then there’s all the other stuff like external integrations, etc.
We handled that by having an Even system built on the Postgres WAL that we use like a callback system.
I put together a little library in Elixir (that originally started out as forked Supabase realtime) for this:
https://github.com/cpursley/walex
Recently added the ability to configure WalEx to forward events to webhooks or EventRelay (so you don’t need to know Elixir).

All the ways to capture changes in Postgres
If you're using Elixir, check out https://github.com/cpursley/walex
I've actually been thinking about turning this idea into a product where you can just point it at your postgres database and select the tables you want to listen to (with filters, like you describe). And have that forwarded to a webhook (with possibility of other protocols).
I'd love to hear folks thoughts on that (and if it would be something people would pay for).

Show HN: ElectricSQL, Postgres to SQLite active-active sync for local-first apps
Neat, this is the pattern I've been thinking about for a while now. Also glad to see this is Elixir based.
I've been using https://github.com/cpursley/walex (basically a fork of cainophile via a fork for subabase) to listen to Postgres changes in Elixir.

How to Listen to Database Changes Using Postgres Triggers in Elixir

Which is based on WAL logs and doesnt have the same limitations.

PostgreSQL Logical Replication Gotchas
Great writeup, just added this to the WalEx readme:
https://github.com/cpursley/walex
(WalEx is an Elixir lib for listening to the WAL and perform callback-like actions with the data)

We used Elixir's Observer to hunt down bottlenecks
Very cool.
I'm using Elixir to listen to change events via https://github.com/cpursley/walex (which I basically ripped off from Supabase).

Choosing Between a Streaming Database and a Stream Processing Framework in Python
They manage data in the application layer and your original data stays where it is. This way data consistency is no longer an issue as it was with streaming databases. You can use Change Data Capture (CDC) services like Debezium by directly connecting to your primary database, doing computational work, and saving the result back or sending real-time data to output streams.

Generating Avro Schemas from Go types
Both of these articles mention a key player, Debezium. In fact, Debezium has had a place in the modern infrastructure. Let's use a diagram to understand why.

How the heck do I validate records with this kind of data??
This might be overkill, but you could use an extra tool like https://debezium.io to capture logs about all creates, updates, and deletes in your table

ClickHouse Advanced Tutorial: Apply CDC from MySQL to ClickHouse
Contrary to what it sounds, it’s quite straightforward. The database changes are captured via Debezium and published as events on Apache Kafka. ClickHouse consumes those changes in partial order by Kafka Engine. Real-time and eventually consistent.
