Overview
Oracle to Oracle Database@AWS
Prepare for Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle end-of support with Nordcloud’s Migration Assessment—identify impacts, evaluate migration paths, and accelerate your transition with confidence.
Nordcloud provides end-to-end Oracle database modernization services on AWS, using a standardized “assess → modernize → manage” delivery model. We begin with a discovery and assessment phase to confirm scope and stakeholders, review application and database architecture, analyze Oracle AWR performance reports, and clarify governance, risk, and compliance requirements. Based on the assessment, we recommend target technology options aligned with application migration plans, identify modernization blockers and mitigations, estimate effort, and document dependencies.
For execution, we modernize and migrate Oracle workloads using proven migration methods (e.g., RMAN, Data Guard, GoldenGate, Data Pump, and AWS DMS/SCT), depending on the target platform. Supported AWS modernization paths include: (1) Oracle-to-Oracle Database@AWS, enabling Oracle Exadata infrastructure managed by OCI within AWS data centers, with low-latency connectivity to AWS applications and integrations such as Zero-ETL to Amazon Redshift; (2) Oracle to Amazon RDS for Oracle for a fully managed Oracle environment with operational offload; (3) heterogeneous migrations to AWS-managed open-source databases such as Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL or Aurora MySQL.
An additional focus area is the transition from Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle to Oracle Database@AWS, delivered through a structured approach covering pre-migration assessment (sizing and dependencies), migration strategy selection (based on downtime, scale, and constraints), and execution using tools such as ZDM, Data Guard, GoldenGate, RMAN, Data Pump, and AWS DMS.
After migration, Nordcloud can continue with managed services, where a Managed Cloud DBA team supports ongoing optimization and operations of cloud-based database estates.
Highlights
- Assess and migrate your Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle workloads to Oracle Database@AWS before end-of-support, with a clear path covering sizing, execution, and risk mitigation.
- Three modernization paths for Oracle on AWS: Oracle Database@AWS (Exadata), Amazon RDS for Oracle, and Oracle-exit migrations to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL/MySQL.
- Structured delivery model (Discovery → Assessment → Migration/Modernization → Managed Services) including AWR analysis, dependency mapping, risk/compliance alignment, and effort estimation.
