Back to this thread - I realize that in the "COPY TO" documentation, it
states the CSV file used for loading must be on the server's disk. If I
can't put files on the server's disk, I'm curious if I can use the STDIN
option from my JDBC client to load the data to the server? Using psql I
can stream data after the call. Is there anyway to accomplish the same
thing with JDBC?
Thanks!
Chris

Hi All-
I'm new to Postgres and have a question about bulk loading from streams.
I know that I can bulk load from a file using COPY. Is it possible to
use a stream instead of a file? If so, and I limited to stdin? I'm
attempting to stream data from a remote database into my Postgres
instance. I don't want to insert each tuple individually using jdbc
since that would be horribly slow...
Thanks,
Chris
