This documentation PR accompanies PeerDB-io/peerdb#4491.

It adds concise deprecation callouts (no content removed or restructured) to mark the following as deprecated and no longer actively maintained. They remain fully functional and no code is currently being removed.

Deprecated destination connectors

  • Snowflake
  • ElasticSearch
  • Kafka (including the Confluent and Redpanda variants)
  • Azure Event Hubs
  • Google Pub/Sub
  • S3
  • GCS
  • BigQuery — deprecated only as a destination. BigQuery remains a supported source.

Actively-maintained destinations: ClickHouse, ClickHouse Cloud, Postgres.

Deprecated mirror types

  • Query Replication (QRep)
  • XMIN

CDC (Change Data Capture) is the recommended, actively-maintained mirror type.

Pages updated

  • Connector setup guides: connect/snowflake, connect/bigquery, connect/s3, connect/gcs, connect/elasticsearch, connect/kafka, connect/confluent-cloud, connect/pubsub
  • CDC mirror guides to deprecated destinations: mirror/cdc-pg-sf, mirror/cdc-pg-bq, mirror/cdc-pg-kafka, mirror/cdc-pg-elasticsearch
  • CDC use-case pages to deprecated destinations: usecases/real-time-cdc/postgres-to-snowflake, postgres-to-bigquery, postgres-to-cloud (S3/GCS), postgres-to-azure-eventhubs
  • Streaming Query Replication (QRep): usecases/streaming-query-replication/overview and all sub-pages, plus tutorials/realtime-streaming-of-query-results
  • SQL command reference: sql/commands/create-mirror (Streaming Query Results and XMIN sections)
  • Status/matrix pages: features/supported-connectors, sql/commands/supported-connectors, features/feature-matrix (rows marked (deprecated) and a summary callout added)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

…or types

Adds deprecation callouts to docs pages for destination connectors that are
deprecated and no longer actively maintained (Snowflake, ElasticSearch, Kafka
including Confluent and Redpanda variants, Azure Event Hubs, Google Pub/Sub,
S3, GCS, and BigQuery as a destination). BigQuery remains a supported source.

Also marks the Query Replication (QRep) and XMIN mirror types as deprecated,
recommending CDC as the actively-maintained mirror type.

The callouts state these remain fully functional and that no code is currently
being removed. Accompanies PeerDB-io/peerdb#4491.
