Migrating 600 databases to AWS and making them better, faster, and cheaper
COM311 AWS re:Invent 2022
This dev chat covers the entire journey of a real-life large-scale database migration from Oracle on premises to PostgreSQL on AWS. Learn about the process and unique details, issues, and tips learned from zero-downtime database migration, change data capture, and schema conversion. Find out how the migration not only made the databases cheaper by eliminating licensing costs, but also sped up development and helped the application run faster. Finally, find out about the missing features the migration team needed for PostgreSQL and how they open-sourced them.
