thing to note is that you will have to code up a logical replication
client. If I can do it, pretty much anyone can, but it might take some time
to get things right. I wrote about some of what I found when developing our
client a year ago here:

We ended up just using the included test output plugin that comes with the
postgresql distribution. And we didn't end up streaming to Kafka or
anything else first. We just take the data and insert it into our
elasticsearch cluster directly as we get it.
