## Source excerpt

The PostgreSQL community host a number of conferences all over the year, and the next ones I'm lucky enough to get to are approaching fast now. First, next month in September, we have Postgres Open in Chicago, where my talk about Large Scale Migration from MySQL to PostgreSQL has been selected! This talk shares hindsights about the why and the how of that migration, what problems couldn't be solved without moving away and how the solution now looks. The tools used for migrating away the data, the methods the new architecture are detailed. And the new home, in the cloud!
