In this session hosted by Jessica, experts Amit and Dennis discuss the critical topic of migrating on-premises databases to the cloud, specifically focusing on transitioning from Oracle to Snowflake. They emphasize the importance of proper planning and data modeling to avoid common pitfalls in migration projects, which often fail due to poor governance and unexpected issues.
The session highlights the use of Quest solutions like Shareplex, Foglight, and Toad Data Studio to facilitate a smooth migration process. Amit and Dennis explain the significance of understanding existing data structures and relationships before migration, as well as the need for real-time data replication to minimize downtime. They also discuss the importance of monitoring and validating data integrity post-migration to ensure performance and consistency.
Key takeaways include the necessity of thorough data modeling, the benefits of using Shareplex for real-time replication, and the role of Foglight in monitoring database performance.
