CLOUDBASIC RDS A short review
Amazing Service
The optimization features are praised as a strong quality, but I've seen occasions where the automated optimization suggestions didn't match the particular requirements of my databases. It would be beneficial if the tool offered more individualized recommendations that consider the special needs of various consumers and applications.
Azure SQL databases to Amazon RDS SQL Server DR and Migration
We leveraged CloudBasic for RDS SQL Server Read Replicas and Disaster Recovery (DR) to deploy Azure SQL databases to Amazon RDS SQL Server Disaster Recovery, with the purpose of migrating to AWS with near real-time, after finalizing the testing of our AWS environment. CloudBasic maintained our source Azure SQL Server databases in sync with the replica databases on RDS SQL Server, over a period of a few months. Once we had our applications on AWS ready, tested against the replica databases, we performed a near-real time cut-over, promoted replica databases to primary, by performing a DR fail-over in the CloudBasic console UI. Orchestrating a fully automated fail-over, by leveraging CloudBasic’s API and other AWS services, as documented in this blog was an option for us as well: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/database/migrating-sql-server-databases-from-microsoft-azure-to-aws-in-near-real-time-with-cloudbasic/
Initiating the jobs in the CloudBasic console UI was easy, no custom scripting was necessary. CloudBasic automatically handled any necessary database schema conversion to facilitate Azure SQL Database to Amazon RDS SQL Server replication seamlessly. It accounted for SQL Server version and edition incompatibility and created SQL Server read replicas in Amazon RDS for SQL Server, in a fully automated manner.
We reached for support to CloudBasic on https://cloudbasic.net. We had a support representative assigned, who helped us to fine tune the replication jobs, provided guidance with following up best practices to achieve near real-time fail-over.
Continuous replication and reliability.
We use Cloudbasic to continually replicate the various databases to a database where we centralize and consolidate data and generate updated reports in real time.
The tool is fast, reliable and with a very intuitive interface, which makes it easy for all staff to use.
Whenever we need support, during installation, questions or problems, they have always responded very quickly and are always willing to resolve the issue in a very kind manner.
Very flexible, thorough, comes with great support
We have used Cloudbasic to so far migrate over 100 databases from our virtualized SQL environment into AWS RDS SQL (and even some Azure SQL Database) with no downtime for the database users.
Our databases are continually online and continually having DDL and DML changes made against them, so it was important to have a solution that would capture all of these changes and ensure that the migration target stayed up to date until the time of our cutover, and based on our research Cloud Basic was the one tool that was capable of achieving that seamlessly.
Moreover, their API has been incredibly useful in enabling us to schedule and automate the setup and failover of all of these migrations. It completely covers all facets of setting up and failing over a complete migration.
Lastly, anytime we had a question around using their product, or a request for assistance, or even (and this is the cool part) a new feature request, their support and development teams jumped right on it.
I have been continually impressed with this product and with this organization. It takes what should be difficult to impossible and makes it possible.
Fast and elegant
We have an issue on upgrading from the old version of cloudbasic to the latest. The supporter was so kind and elegant. He has provided us a fast support.
Thanks!
Amazing Product for RDS SQL Server replication
Cloudbasic RDS Always-On/ Geo-Replicate for SQL Server provided us with just what we were looking for. It saved us a lot of time during our migration process by taking care of the database schema replication and keeping large amounts of data in sync. Also, the support has been amazing in terms of being available in-spite of the time zone differences.
