AWS Databases migrations

Flexible ways to help you migrate databases to AWS

Largest network of migration partners, tools, and funding programs to help you achieve your migration goals.

Self-service migration

For self-service migrations, AWS offers AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) with schema conversion to help customers quickly and securely migrate their databases to AWS.

Professional services and partners

For those that prefer migration assistance, AWS Professional Services and certified partners from the AWS Partner Network can help you securely migrate databases of any size. Both offer a wide range of migration services and use proven best practices and resources to provide migration support that reduces the time and barriers of moving your databases to the cloud.

Database migration programs

Database Freedom is a unique AWS program designed to assist customers with their migration to AWS database and analytics services through advice, migration support, and financial assistance. Additionally, Amazon Database Migration Accelerator (contact us) offers complementary advisory services to help customers migrate away from traditional commercial databases. 

AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP)

AWS MAP is designed to provide consulting support, training, and services credits to reduce the risk of migrating to the cloud, build a strong operational foundation, and help offset the initial cost of migrations.

We've gotten so many benefits from migrating our databases from Oracle to Aurora. There is high availability out of the box, lower cost, easier scaling for reads, and far less licensing complexity.
