Integrating Weaviate with Existing Databases - Emmanuel Katto Uganda

Hello Everyone,

My name is Emmanuel Katto. I am currently in the process of integrating Weaviate into my existing application, and I have a few questions regarding best practices for working with data from traditional databases.

  1. What are the best practices for migrating data from an existing relational database to Weaviate? Are there any tools or scripts that you recommend for this process?
  2. What is the most efficient way to keep Weaviate in sync with updates from my existing database? Should I implement a one-way sync, or can it support bi-directional data flow?
  3. What considerations should I take into account when designing my schema in Weaviate, especially if I am transitioning from a normalized relational database structure?

Any insights or experiences you can share would be incredibly helpful.

Thank you in advance for your guidance!

Best,
Emmanuel Katto
