Database migration
  • Database migration in the context of enterprise
    applications basically means moving your data
    from one environment/platform to another.
    Database services are part of cloud migration
    services. There are many reasons that a person
    would want to move to a different platform. For
    example, a company might find that some
    particular database-oriented software has
    features that can help their business needs or a
    company ideally decides to save money by moving
    to a cloud-based environment. Or, the legacy
    systems are simply outdated. The process of
    database migration involves multiple iterations
    and phases like assessing the current databases
    and future needs of the company, normalizing and
    moving the data and also migrating the schema.
    Testing is also a major domain in database
    migration.

Benefits of database migration

cost
  • The primary reason for companies migrating
    databases is to save money. Often companies will
    move from an on-premise physical database to a
    cloud database. This saves on manpower as well as
    the infrastructure and expertise needed to
    support it.

 Modernized software
  • Another common reason for migrating the database
    is to move from an outdated system or legacy
    systems to a system that can accept modern data
    needs. In the age of big data, its mandate to
    feature a new storage technique. For example, a
    company might choose to move from a SQL database
    to a flexible system.

 One source of truth
  • Database migration services are like Aws or azure
    cloud migration services which are a part of
    cloud migration services. Another reason to
    migrate data is to move all the data of the
    company to one place that is accessible by all
    the divisions. This is done when there is some
    acquisition that the system needs to be. Or, it
    can happen when different systems are isolated
    from others. For example, the Marketing group
    might use one database while the IT department
    uses another database and these systems cannot
    interact with each other. When you have different
    databases that are incompatible, it's very hard
    to get the insights.

Database migration services challenges
  • Database migration services can be very complex,
    but with proper planning, these common challenges
    can be minimized
  • Data loss or corruption
  • Security

Data loss or corruption
  • When migrating databases, its very important to
    ensure that your data is safely moved without any
    loss or corruption. Youll need to plan how to
    test for data loss or corruption that happens
    during the transfer of data from one system to
    another.

9
Security
  • When you move data from one platform to another
    platform, its important to protect the data and
    keep it secure. Unfortunately, there are many
    criminal actors who would want to get their hands
    on the personal data we have stored. You need to
    encrypt the data or remove PII(personally
    identifiable information) as a part of the
    migration process.
