Understanding data migration to Amazon S3

For data-centric businesses, migrating data can be a complex yet mission critical task. It requires careful planning, resources and time allocation to ensure a seamless and secure transformation execution. If your business relies on the power of data to make decisions, and if you are ready to migrate to a simple, scalable and secure database management system, then it’s time to consider migration of your business data to AWS S3.

 

The next question which arises is - how to go about choosing the right tool for a time-taking and complex process like AWS DMS S3 so as to ensure a fully operational, updated and continuous data replication experience. The best part about AWS database migration is that it is in itself a seamless process which offers minimum downtime, and enables you to continuously replicate updated data to the target location during the migration process. However, setting up the migration process, loading data from multiple sources, constantly monitoring it, and ensuring a secure replication to a database requires significant resources. 



Thankfully, businesses can now breathe easy about their AWS DMS S3 journey with solutions like Bryteflow. Using Bryteflow’s fully managed and self-serve platform, data replication to Amazon S3 is as easy as ‘point-and-click’. No matter what the source of data is - Bryteflow’s advanced change data capture capabilities are ready to handle on-premise, cloud based and even hybrid database sources, making it more robust than AWS DMS CDC.

Further, Bryteflow delivers merged data directly to Amazon S3, thereby eliminating the complex coding required to manually configure type 2 history of changes.

Amazon Web Service Database Migration Service is a cloud-based platform. Among the AWS DMS Services provided  are database migration from one cloud provider to another or from on-premises databases to the cloud. There are several reasons why organizations prefer to use AWS DMS services.   First , the source database remains fully functional at all times when migrating with the AWS DMS. Hence, there is no need to shut down systems, a huge advantage for large data-driven organizations. Further, since data is replicated with high availability, several databases can be consolidated into a single petabyte-sized one through data streaming to Amazon S3 or Amazon Redshift. There are two types of database migration with the AWS DMS services. Homogeneous Migration This method is applied when the source and the target database engines, the data codes, data types, and schema structures are similar. Migration using AWS DMS services is  thus a one-step process. After the connection b...

The Significance of AWS ETL Tools and Some Options

Image
In the current data-driven ecosystem, c ompanies have access to increasing amounts of data that is sometimes too large to handle. If this data cannot be effectively processed and analyzed, all this information will not reveal the required analytics and will not be of any use. To get around this issue, using the ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tool is the most preferred method to collect data from multiple sources and upload it to a centralized Data Warehouse. The ETL process extracts data from databases, converts the files or tables to match the Data Warehouse structure, and loads them into the data warehouse. There are several AWS ETL options provided  by the Amazon Web Service (AWS). The following are some of the reasons for using them. All AWS ETL options are fully automated and help to migrate your data with zero data loss. Manually loading your data can be time-consuming, especially when you are dealing with petabytes of data and want to have real-time analysis. AWS E...
