Elasticsearch MigrationClickHouse Workshops

00 Setup — instructor notes

Preflight the room, choose the source deployment path, and keep credentials out of shared surfaces.

Before the session

  • Confirm the build-workshop-v1 branch contains workshops/elasticsearch_migration_lab.
  • Test the local path on a 16 GB machine and keep an EC2 fallback ready.
  • Confirm ClickHouse Cloud sign-up is available in the participants' region.
  • Put the learner setup module on screen.

Talk track

Explain the four checkpoints: source, target provisioned, parallel run, and cutover. The parallel run is the safety mechanism; it is not an optional demo flourish.

Common failures

  • Docker has less than 16 GB available: use EC2 or pair participants.
  • jq is missing: install it before module 02, where almost every inspection command uses it.
  • Learner cloned the default branch: run git switch build-workshop-v1 and repeat the file checks.

End checkpoint

Every learner can locate all four part directories and run the version checks. Do not start the large image pull in module 01 until this is true.
