Amazon database migration by IT Svit
Every successful business nowadays ahs to run some customer-facing systems online and store operational data in some databases on-prem or on dedicated servers in data centers. However, running a dedicated server infrastructure is currently out of date and most businesses prefer to move their operations online to reduce TCO. Due to Amazon Web Services being the most massive cloud service provider nowadays, it is only natural that many organizations find themselves in need of skilled AWS database migration services.
While AWS provides an immense library of guides and tutorials regarding database migration, as well as a fully-managed AWS DMS (database migration service), it cannot possibly cover all the configurations and purposes of production environments out there. Not to mention that the coin has two sides and the path to AWS database migration is not covered in rose petals.
Amazon is a beast, but a very nimble and rapidly-moving beast that can devour your budget with ease. It provides a huge variety of services that must be correctly configured to perform at the top of their functionality. New features and updates to the existing services are introduced at a regular pace and it requires quite a lot of effort to just keep abreast with all the innovations from AWS. Therefore, designing the cloud infrastructure you need and performing a database migration to AWS without previous experience with this task is quite impossible — and the experience must be fresh or it will not be relevant.
