Neon has introduced outbound logical replication in beta, enabling users to stream data from Neon databases to various external platforms like Airbyte, Fivetran, Kafka, and others for real-time analytics and Change Data Capture (CDC). Logical replication in Postgres allows data changes, such as inserts, updates, and deletes, to be mirrored in real-time to another database or data source, keeping them synchronized. Unlike pg_dump/restore, which creates static snapshots, logical replication continuously streams changes to ensure data consistency and real-time updates. It supports selective data synchronization, real-time replication, and production migrations without downtime, though it does not handle schema or configuration changes. Setting up logical replication involves creating publications that define which tables and changes are replicated, and managing replication slots to ensure data consistency. Neon handles replication using Postgres' Write-Ahead Log (WAL) and decoder plugins to process data changes. Users can access step-by-step guides to replicate data from Neon to several platforms, and interested users can join the Early Access list for inbound replication.
