Migrate
Application and database migration to cloud
Cloud-based databases are becoming more and more popular among enterprises, particularly as the advantages of moving databases to the cloud become well understood and accepted.
These advantages range from having access to more advanced capabilities offered by a third party to a reduction in staff costs related to database administration. Before deciding to migrate a database to the cloud, it’s vital to weigh the main benefits and drawbacks, especially with regard to management and monitoring capabilities.
