AWS re:Invent 2020: Introducing Babelfish for Aurora PostgreSQL

[@sumarianprince]

Great initiative, am super excited to work, completed my pilot app just two days ago. One major gripe is the lack of good UI tools for managment.

Nice presentation! I'm curious what is a compatibility degree with respect to error situations. Simple example : a deadlock error is handled by the application (well written one), the application is sensible to some error number to take post-deadlock action. Will it be the same error number sent to the client as it would be sent from the SQL Server? Some errors stop current statement, some errors lead to transaction rollback. What is the compatibility scope in such situations ? thanks!

Since babelfish is a translation layer on top of Aurora postgresQL, I am wondering hows the performance of TSQL endpoint on Aurora postgresql compared to native PG SQL . Do we have any performance metrics and comparison data ?
