The Various Facets of SQL Migration

SQL is short for structured Query Language and is used to search, insert, update, and delete database records. It is the standard platform for interacting with Relational Database and other operations that can be carried out including optimizing and maintaining the databases.

In the past and before SQL migration was introduced, almost all applications functioned in a standalone environment with a single server responding to multi-user activity from various locations. This led to multiple complications like performance problems, availability problems, and maintenance issues. Now, SQL migration can take care of these issues and maintain database copies at multiple locations. 

SQL migration is a very effective process that ensures organizations can increase both the performance of SQL databases and the availability of information. It helps businesses to combine and move data into data warehouses, copy and distribute data across multiple database servers in remote offices, migrate data to cloud storage platforms, and offload batch processing. These activities can be carried out irrespective of whether replication is implemented using built-in MSSQL replication utilities or as a third-party one customized by a replication expert.

Along with SQL migration, the CDC (Change Data Capture) feature is used where it is critical to have the latest data and increase business efficiency. It is one of the best ways to accelerate, augment, and reduce the cost of SQLmigration.SQL CDC helps data-driven enterprises to integrate data in real-time and achieve faster time-to-insight. As a result, all changes that are made individually at different locations are synchronized to the main server quickly. This is because SQL migration does not distribute the entire database but only a part of the tables and views.

Using the Database Replication Tool

Image
Data Replication is the process where data is copied from a central database to one or several other databases. The publisher is the source database from where data is to be moved and the subscriber is the intended target database where data is replicated. The process of data movement is optimized only when the best database replication tool is used, giving users access to the same set of data. A database replication tool has several functions. Among the most advanced and cutting-edge capabilities are data security, disaster data recovery and resilience, and business continuity. The tool automatically manages the replication process across diverse sources and targets. However, the difference between data replication and backup is that in replication, all changes made after data replication in the source database are continually updated in the target system. Currently, data replication tools provide transactional data delivery in real-time and integrate into data lakes. A top-end datab...

Making Amazon S3 a Target for DMS Amazon Web Service

Image
Before diving into the various aspects of AWS DMS CDC S3 a quick look at each component separately is in order. The Amazon Web Service Database Migration Service or AWS DMS is a cloud-based platform that facilitates easy migration of data warehouses, relational databases, NoSQL databases, on-premises systems to the cloud, and one cloud provider to another. CDC or Change Data Capture is the process of recording modifications made in the latest production data or metadata which is then stored in a separate data repository replication software. Amazon S3 or Simple Storage Service is ideal for users, who, among other things want to work with limited storage operations and quickly scale up to tens of terabytes of data if required. The advantage of AWS DMS CDC S3 is that the replication activity can be done both within and outside the region with S3 having the capability to go through billions of objects of Batch Operations. Users can migrate data using AWS DMS CDC to S3 from any su...
