Zero-Downtime Database Migration to Cloud or Dedicated Server (AWS RDS/Azure)
Migrating a live database to a new server or cloud platform involves risks such as data loss and service interruptions. This service provides a seamless and secure migration of your database to your target environment—whether on-premises, AWS RDS, or Azure SQL—while ensuring minimal downtime and full data integrity. By leveraging advanced change data capture and replication techniques, I keep your data synchronized throughout the migration process, allowing your applications to continue running smoothly with near-zero disruption.
Scope of Work:
- Comprehensive assessment of your database schema, size, and workload to plan the migration strategy
- Preparation and configuration of the target environment (AWS RDS, Azure SQL, or dedicated VM)
- Initial bulk data export and import using tools like mysqldump or pg_dump
- Set up of change data capture or replication mechanisms for delta synchronization during migration
- Final cutover to the new environment with minimal downtime
- Post-migration validation to ensure data consistency and integrity
