Validate Real-Time Replication with a Free Assisted Helyx PoC

Choosing a replication stack is one of those decisions teams don’t want to get wrong.

With databases spanning Oracle, PostgreSQL, multi-cloud, hybrid, and cross-region setups, the expectations today are high:

-- Zero data loss
-- Real-time CDC
-- Schema evolution without breaking pipelines
-- No vendor lock-in
-- Minimal downtime during cutovers

But validating these capabilities often requires time, environment setup, and domain knowledge — which delays decision-making and adds engineering risk.

To make this easier for teams, we’re opening up a Free Assisted PoC for Helyx, our cloud-agnostic real-time replication fabric.

What’s Included in the PoC?

You’ll be able to validate real-time replication across up to 10 tables in your own environment with the help of our engineers.

During the PoC, you can test:

Real-Time CDC Replication
See live changes move from source → target without batch windows.

Schema Evolution Support
Alter tables and validate that replication keeps flowing without restarts.

Heterogeneous Scenarios

Common setups include:

  1. Oracle → PostgreSQL
  2. Oracle → Oracle (multi-cloud or cross-region)
  3. PostgreSQL → PostgreSQL

Cloud and Region Portability

Test replication across AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-prem without vendor-specific services.

Zero Downtime Characteristics

Observe how replication behaves during deployments, cutovers, or patching.

Why a Guided PoC Matters

Database replication isn’t “plug and play.”
Engineers often evaluate tools under pressure, and that can lead to:

-- Misconfigurations
-- Incorrect baselines
-- Unfair assumptions
-- Wasted cycles

With an assisted PoC, our team helps you:

-- Design the test scenario
-- Set up the environment
-- Validate CDC behavior
-- Inspect lag metrics
-- Confirm schema alignment
-- Answer operational questions

In short — you validate capabilities faster, with less frustration.

Who Is This PoC For?

We’ve seen the most interest from:

DBAs validating Oracle-to-Oracle high availability

Cloud architects planning multi-cloud or hybrid replication

Migration teams moving from Oracle to PostgreSQL

Platform engineers enabling real-time analytics pipelines

If you’re dealing with mission-critical workloads, this PoC provides clarity without heavy upfront commitment.

📌 How to Request the PoC

If you want to validate **Helyx **with your own databases and your own data model:

👉 Request your Free Assisted PoC (up to 10 tables)
https://helyx.quobotic.com/get-free-assisted-poc

We’ll coordinate the setup and guide you through the validation process.
