Is it correct to assume that if your existing application has lots of data stored in standard PostgreSQL tables, you can't have InstantDB sync with it?
In other words it primarily targets brand new projects or projects that can completely migrate away from their current database?
- nezaj 2y agoWe're currently working on a Postgres adapter. If you have an existing app and would be interested in using Instant with it, please send us a note: founders@instantdb.com The way the Postgres adapter would work: You give us your database url [1], and Instant handles the real-time sync. [2] For roll-out, we'll test it ourselves first and then take on beta users. [1] Encrypted at rest: https://github.com/instantdb/instant/blob/main/server/src/instant/model/app.clj#L282 https://github.com/instantdb/instant/blob/main/server/src/in... [2] Here's a fun 'pg introspection' function: https://github.com/instantdb/instant/blob/main/server/src/instant/db/pg_introspect.clj#L28 https://github.com/instantdb/instant/blob/main/server/src/in... . You can take sneak peak through codebase by searching 'byop'.
