Migrating a company’s database architecture from an on-premises database to the cloud can be a complicated and time-consuming process. One of the critical decisions is the choice of tooling to deliver the migration, and how to get the best out of the selected tool.

AWS provides a secure, scalable, comprehensive, and cost-effective portfolio of services that enable customers to build their data lake in the cloud.
