      Database Migration with Zero or minimal downtime | by Ankur | Opstree | Medium

      The competitive world has given organizations some of the obvious reasons to adopt new technologies. These include speed of doing things, improvisation of overall performance, etc. Now you know what is database migration, it’s time to know reasons for performing database migration. Let’s have a look at them.

      1. To Save expenses:

      Using old databases might add overhead expenses to the company. Like installing other applications or systems to work in a quick manner. They will move their database to a platform that will serve their purpose in an efficient manner. This will help in saving on infrastructure as well as manpower and expertise needed to support it.

      They wanted to have more flexibility, as well as to improve the application’s speed, reliability, security and disaster recovery planning.

      To avoid or minimize the service disruption, they opted for conducting on-premise to cloud migration as efficiently as possible.

      2. Upgrade to new technology 

      This is a very common reason for migration, where the company would shift from either an outdated system or a legacy one to a system that is designed for the current day data needs.

      In this era of big data, adopting new and efficient storage techniques is a necessity. For instance, a company might choose to move from a legacy SQL database to a data lake or any other flexible system.

      3. To Reduce Redundancy 

      Data migration is an essential thing for the companies in order to  move all the company data to a single place. This will help in minimizing redundant data. Also, the data stored in one place can be easily accessible by all the divisions of the company.

      Sometimes, this happens after acquisition when the systems need to be combined. It can also happen when different systems are siloed throughout a company.

      For instance, different departments have different databases and there is no sync between them. It becomes really difficult to gain insights from your data when you have different databases that are incompatible.

      4. Security Fixes:

      As per the research, it is found that the databases are one of the most vulnerable entities to cyberattacks. This is because they are the easiest to get into through networks. Most of the organizations fail to upgrade their databases regularly as they do other systems. This eventually leaves a wide gap for the hackers to enter and reveal or steal information.

      Mike Dietrich of Oracle states, “The news is full of reports [about] hacked and cracked systems. It is essential to have the most current security fixes”.

      Most of the database upgrades come with security options, which implies that the only way to protect your database is to get it updated on a regular basis.

      If you find any of the above reasons (among many) hurdling your overall application performance, then you should go for dB migration.
