What is a Database Administrator?
Database administrators manage and operate databases that are used by applications to store, retrieve, and analyze data. In this learning path, you will learn how to migrate your legacy database workloads to fully managed databases that are purpose-built for the cloud. This path also shares best practices on how to move data, schema, and code from the source database while limiting application downtime and ensuring no data loss. Finally, this path provides tools to validate whether your data successfully moved to the target database and verify that your queries run correctly.
