Gravity 简体中文

---

Gravity is used to replicate data between various inputs and outputs (databases, message queues).

It is designed to be a customizable data replication tool that:

• Supports multiple sources and destinations

• Supports Kubernetes-based replication cluster

Use Cases

• Data Bus: Use Change Data Capture (MySQL binlog, MongoDB Oplog) and batch table scan to publish data to message queue like Kafka.
• Unidirectional data replication: Replicates data from one MySQL cluster to another MySQL cluster.
• Bidirectional data replication: Replicates data between two MySQL clusters bidirectionally.
• Synchronization of shards to the merged table: Synchronizes MySQL sharded tables to the merged table. You can specify the corresponding relationship between the source table and the target table.
• Online data mutation: Data can be changed during the replication. For example, rename the column, encrypt/decrypt data columns.
