That's the intention. Take the output of test_decoding, transform it into a reasonable object form, and feed that into an events stream for real-time consumption. The initial question was suitability of the test_decoding plugin, given that it is the only one I see available on RDS and requiring a switch to a self-managed Postgres instance—to use a separate plugin—would kill this idea. Are there any success/failure stories about using logical decoding as a way of generating an events stream? There's some new question marks over the consumer side, whether to use pg_recvlogical or something with a peek/write to stream/pop cycle to protect the consumer from failure. Given a single reader, what is the common failure mode when consuming the output?
