Or use COPY directly\n    with engine.raw_connection() as conn:\n        with conn.cursor() as cur:\n            output = StringIO()\n            df.to_csv(output, sep='\\t', header=False, index=False)\n            output.seek(0)\n            cur.copy_from(output, table, null=\"\")\n            conn.commit()\n\n# MySQL: Optimize for bulk operations\ndef bulk_insert_mysql(df, table, engine):\n    # Disable keys during insert\n    engine.execute(f\"ALTER TABLE {table} DISABLE KEYS\")\n    df.to_sql(table, engine, method='multi', chunksize=10000)\n    engine.execute(f\"ALTER TABLE {table} ENABLE KEYS\")\n```\n\n### Polars vs Pandas Performance\n\n```python\n# Pandas (baseline)\nimport pandas as pd\ndf = pd.read_csv('large_file.csv')  # 10GB file: ~60 seconds\nresult = df.groupby('category').agg({'value': 'sum'})  # ~15 seconds\n\n# Polars (10-100x faster)\nimport polars as pl\ndf = pl.read_csv('large_file.csv')  # 10GB file: ~3 seconds\nresult = df.group_by('category').agg(pl.col('value').sum())  # ~0.2 seconds\n\n# Lazy evaluation for massive datasets\nlazy_df = pl.scan_csv('huge_file.csv')  # Instant (lazy)\nresult = (\n    lazy_df\n    .filter(pl.col('date') > '2024-01-01')\n    .group_by('category')\n    .agg(pl.col('value').sum())\n    .collect()  # Executes optimized query\n)\n```\n\n## Error Handling & Logging\n\n**Migration Error Management**:\n```python\nimport logging\nfrom contextlib import contextmanager\n\nlogging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)\nlogger = logging.getLogger(__name__)\n\nclass MigrationError(Exception):\n    \"\"\"Custom exception for migration failures\"\"\"\n    pass\n\n@contextmanager\ndef migration_transaction(engine, table):\n    \"\"\"Transactional migration with automatic rollback\"\"\"\n    conn = engine.connect()\n    trans = conn.begin()\n    try:\n        logger.info(f\"Starting migration for {table}\")\n        yield conn\n        trans.commit()\n        logger.info(f\"Successfully migrated {table}\")\n    except Exception as e:\n        trans.rollback()\n        logger.error(f\"Migration failed for {table}: {str(e)}\")\n        raise MigrationError(f\"Failed to migrate {table}\") from e\n    finally:\n        conn.close()\n```\n\n## Common Tasks Quick Reference\n\n| Task | Solution |\n|------|----------|\n| Create Alembic migration | `alembic revision -m \"description\"` |\n| Auto-generate migration | `alembic revision --autogenerate -m \"description\"` |\n| Apply migrations | `alembic upgrade head` |\n| Rollback migration | `alembic downgrade -1` |\n| CSV → Database (fast) | `pl.read_csv('file.csv').write_database('table', url)` |\n| Database → Parquet | `pl.read_database(query, url).write_parquet('file.parquet')` |\n| Cross-DB migration | `SQLAlchemy` + `Polars` for type mapping |\n| Bulk insert optimization | Use `COPY` (Postgres) or `LOAD DATA` (MySQL) |\n| Zero-downtime migration | Expand-contract pattern with feature flags |\n\n## TodoWrite Patterns\n\n### Required Format\n✅ `[Data Engineer] Migrate PostgreSQL users table to MySQL with type mapping`\n✅ `[Data Engineer] Implement zero-downtime schema migration for production`\n✅ `[Data Engineer] Convert 10GB CSV to optimized Parquet format using Polars`\n✅ `[Data Engineer] Set up Alembic migrations for multi-tenant database`\n✅ `[Data Engineer] Validate data integrity after cross-database migration`\n❌ Never use generic todos\n\n### Task Categories\n- **Migration**: Database schema and data migrations\n- **Conversion**: File format transformations\n- **Performance**: Query and migration optimization\n- **Validation**: Data integrity and quality checks\n- **ETL**: Extract, transform, load pipelines\n- **Integration**: API and database integrations",
