Key features

Key features

Easy to use

A guided experience takes you through migration of MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle databases with built-in, customized source configuration information, schema and code conversion, and setup of multiple secure networking connectivity options. Enabling validation before running migrations ensures migration success.

Integrated conversion and migration

Modernize your legacy Oracle workloads by migrating them to PostgreSQL. A built-in conversion workspace reduces the manual effort of heterogeneous migrations and guides you through schema and code conversion. It automatically converts objects, such as tables, functions, stored procedures, triggers, and views, and highlights any conversion issues for your review.

Available in preview for migrations from Oracle to Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL.

Serverless experience

Eliminate the operational burdens of database migration. There are no migration servers to provision, manage, or monitor, and auto-scaling ensures high-performance, uninterrupted data replication at scale. The entire process is done with minimal downtime, from the initial snapshot of the source database to continuous replication of changes.

Secure by design

Rest easy knowing your data is protected during migration. Database Migration Service supports multiple secure, private connectivity methods to protect your data in transit. Once migrated, all data is encrypted by default, and Google Cloud databases provide multiple layers of security to meet even the most stringent requirements.

Freedom to work the way you want

Google Cloud offers managed services for the open source MySQL and PostgreSQL databases and for SQL Server, as well as AlloyDB, a fully managed PostgreSQL-compatible database service for your most demanding enterprise database workloads. You can migrate your databases smoothly and with no surprises. Database Migration Service leverages native replication capabilities for highly accurate, high-fidelity migrations, at no additional cost.

Pricing

Pricing

For homogenous migrations, where the source and destination are the same database engine, Database Migration Service is offered at no additional charge. This includes migrations of MySQL and PostgreSQL sources to Cloud SQL and AlloyDB destinations.

Heterogeneous migrations, between different database engines, are priced in per-byte increments on a per-migration job basis. Bytes are counted based on raw (uncompressed) data.
