Database Cloud Modernization
Cloud Modernization for MySQL / MariaDB
Modernize MySQL and MariaDB workloads with minimal disruption and a secure managed cloud foundation.
Service Overview
MySQL and MariaDB power an enormous share of the web — ecommerce platforms, content systems, and line-of-business applications that businesses depend on daily. Most of these run self-managed, on servers that need patching, backups that need verifying, and replication that needs babysitting. Managed cloud services remove that operational load while improving availability and response times.
Our pathway assesses your engine and version, storage engines, stored routines, grants, and replication topology, then designs the managed target — Azure Database for MySQL, Amazon RDS or Aurora, Google Cloud SQL, or OCI HeatWave — with TLS, identity, backup, and high availability configured properly from day one. Migration is rehearsed in a pilot with full application testing, then executed with change synchronization so cutover disruption is minimal.
After migration, we tune: indexes, read replicas, connection handling, and storage configuration — so applications respond faster and operating costs stay predictable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you support both MySQL and MariaDB?
Yes. The pathway covers both engines, including cross-engine considerations — MariaDB-specific features, version compatibility with managed MySQL services, and whether staying on MariaDB or converging on MySQL is the better long-term position for your workload.
How much downtime will our ecommerce site see?
Minimal. We perform a full data load in advance, keep the target synchronized with change replication, rehearse the cutover during the pilot, and switch connections during a short planned window — typically minutes, not hours.
Which managed MySQL service is best?
Azure Database for MySQL, Amazon RDS and Aurora, Google Cloud SQL, and OCI HeatWave each fit different profiles — Aurora for high-throughput scaling, HeatWave for combined transactional and analytics workloads, and the others aligning naturally with your existing cloud platform. The assessment recommends the fit for your workload and budget.
What does the MySQL Cloud Migration Starter include?
Starting at $18,500, it packages the modernization pathway for a defined workload set — assessment through cutover. Exact scope is confirmed after assessment and workload sizing.
