NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar. Understand more

Trial ? Worth pursuing. It is important to understand how to build up this capability. Enterprises should try this technology on a project that can handle the risk.

Many of our teams have successfully used AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) to migrate data to and from AWS. In one of our Digital Transformation engagements, we achieved nearly zero downtime cut-over to the new system as we migrated data from Microsoft SQL Server to an AWS Relational Database Service (RDS) PostgreSQL instance. Such transformations involve many moving parts that require planning and coordination across multidisciplinary teams, but for data migration we're quite happy with DMS. It automatically manages the deployment, management and monitoring of all required resources. Over the years DMS has matured to support several source and target databases, and we continue to like it.
