SQL Server Database Migration
Migrate SQL Server databases on time, on budget, with higher ROI.
Make testing and analysis part of your SQL Server database migration process
For painless SQL Server database migration, it’s critical to test and analyze performance at every stage. You’ll need to build a baseline to have initial documentation on how the migrated database runs and test for issues having the potential to become problems in the future. Once your migration is complete, you’ll need to have testing and analysis in place to ensure your migrated database is fully functional as required for your organization.
Pinpoint Pre- vs. Post-Migration Performance Differences
SolarWinds® SQL Sentry® allows you to visualize the comparative performance of the pre-and post-migration versions of your database. SQL Sentry Advisory Conditions compare current workload performance to legacy performance and alert you when deviations are detected. Insights like these help accelerate functional testing and allow you to put migrated SQL Server databases into production more confidently.
Document the Migration Process and Data Lineage
SQL Server database migration can be challenging for many organizations worried about prolonged downtime and losing valuable data during cloud migration. To aid in the database migration process, SolarWinds Database Mapper includes powerful documentation and data lineage analysis. With Database Mapper, you can easily maintain up-to-date documentation and data lineage to help ensure the migrated database complies with business rules and data privacy regulations.
Continuously Optimize Your Migrated SQL Server Database
Under- or over-provisioning the target server or cloud database service for your SQL Server database migration can mean a poor user experience and wasted budget. During the migration process and beyond, SolarWinds SQL Sentry (formerly known as SentryOne® SQL Sentry) helps monitor SQL Server performance metrics and allows you to distinguish consistent baseline performance patterns from anomalies, which is critical to your data platform continuously delivering optimal performance to your database users.
