One of the biggest challenge most of the organizations are witnessing is how to leverage the data that is being generated within or outside the organization. One of the major reasons as to why this challenge exist is, there are a large number of legacy applications with its backend Databases that has been designed and developed long back that were tuned, to the then requirements. Hence modernizing organization’s Databases becomes inevitable and in the process of the same organization choose to adopt Cloud Migration as their key strategy.
Organizations typically choose to move to the cloud for the agility and speed they can get for their Databases. Thousands of servers (VMs) in the cloud in minutes, compared to weeks of effort it takes to set up on-prem servers. There isn't a single, one-size-fits-all strategy for migrating databases to the cloud.
The right migration strategy will depend on organization's needs and priorities, and the kind of databases that are being migrating. Not all databases warrant the investment of moving to a Platform as a Service (PaaS) model or developing a Cloud Native model. A phased wise or incremental approach in moving Databases to the cloud may be adopted, based on business needs.
For modern Databases with the best long-term agility and value for the organization, it might benefit investing in cloud-native architectures. However, for legacy designed Database that are existing, the key is to spend minimal time and money with no re-architecting or coding changes, while moving them to the cloud, to realize significant benefits.
