What are the migration paths between them?

I cannot identify any migration paths between brettwooldridge/hikaricp and realm/realm-java. These are fundamentally different libraries serving distinct purposes:
- brettwooldridge/hikaricp is a JDBC connection pool for managing database connections at the application level.
- realm/realm-java is a mobile database and object-persistence framework for Android.
They operate at different architectural layers and solve different problems. HikariCP manages connections to external relational databases, while Realm is an embedded database engine. An application might use both libraries (e.g., a backend service using HikariCP for database pooling and a Realm-backed Android app), but there is no migration or upgrade path from one to the other.
If you're looking for guidance on:
- How to use HikariCP in a backend that serves Realm-based clients, or
- Database access patterns in each ecosystem
I can help with those specific questions about either repository.
FOLLOW_UPS:
- What database does HikariCP pool connections for?
- Does Realm support external SQL databases?
- How do Android apps typically access backend databases?
