Twincling Database Switcher Project

Problem Statement

Open Source products have different data access and storage requirements as the client base grows and traffic load increases.

Twincling Database switcher module helps products switch their backend datastore, by transparently migrating the entire datasets from one Open Source database to another.

Additional Notes

In the first phase of implementation, Open Source databases like MySQL, PostgreSql, SQlite are targetted.

It may be necessary to investigate a possibility of implementing a proxy / interceptor layer to understand the databae traffic profile.

In the second phase of implementation, migration from MS-SQL Server 2000 will be supported.
