Taps for Easy Database Transfers
january 2010 by infovore
"Taps is a temporary web service you run on a server that has access to the database you want to export. You can then run the client to connect to that service and pull data out of it in chunks. It works through firewalls, doesn’t require a direct ssh connection, and - best of all - it’s database independent. So you can export from a MySQL database and import to PostgreSQL, or vice versa."
