What is the current state of the art (open source) when doing oltp to olap pipelines in these days? I don’t mean a one-off etl style load at night but a continuous process with relatively low latency?


Idk what the state of the art is, but I’ve used change data capture with Debezium and Kafka, sink’d into Snowflake. Not sure Kafka is the right tool as you don’t need persistence, and having replication slots makes a lot of operations (eg DB engine upgrade) a lot harder though.


I would say clickhouse
