Build a Real-Time CDC Pipeline with Estuary & MotherDuck

Most CDC setups are a pain to configure. This webinar shows a simpler way: Estuary handles the real-time streaming from your transactional database, MotherDuck handles the analytics on the other end. We'll build a working pipeline live, from Postgres to queryable data in MotherDuck, and talk through the tradeoffs compared to batch approaches.

Panel: Scaling DuckDB to TBs and PBs with Smallpond, MotherDuck, and homegrown solutions

Jordan Tigani (MotherDuck), Jake Thomas (Okta), and Mehdi Ouazza (MotherDuck) talk through what actually works: when to throw more RAM at it vs. going distributed, how serverless compares, and what Okta learned running DuckDB on large datasets in production.
