How to continuously move Oracle data to lower-cost PostgreSQL, MySQL or SQL Server in Azure.
How to continuously move Oracle data to lower-cost PostgreSQL, MySQL or SQL Server in Azure.

In this webcast, Microsoft Cloud Solutions Architect Sri Hari and Quest® Database Solutions Engineer Martin Wild will show you how to reduce costs and improve database performance by offloading reporting.

You’ll see how to safely and easily move Oracle data into lower-cost Azure SQL and SQL Server databases.

 

This session will discuss ways to address projects that involve: 

  • Offload your Oracle reporting to an Azure PaaS database, such as PostgreSQL, MySQL or SQL Server
  • Using Oracle data in Azure Analytics
  • How to locate your audit data from Oracle to Azure (CDC)
  • Building a data warehouse in Azure that’s based on and in sync with your Oracle data 
  • Continuously move Oracle data to Azure SQL Database to accurately and affordably offload reporting

We’ll also address your concerns about: 

  • Optimizing reporting performance on target databases by placing workloads closer to users, by segregating reporting workload to different locations, data sets and more
  • Using a data replication solution that’s easy, flexible and accurate with low overhead that can keep up with high volumes of transactions
  • How to monitor the health and performance of your Azure databases
  • Network Latency
  • And running Azure database workloads

When you first move database workloads to the cloud, you may think you won’t have to worry much about performance or ongoing costs. Of course, the reality is quite different. Performance may become unpredictable and problematic.

Your manager may ask why your subscription costs are spiraling out of control. In this session, you’ll learn why it’s important to monitor the performance of your cloud instances and optimize queries to help control costs. 

You’ll learn how to:

  • Monitor the performance of Oracle and SQL Server databases in AWS and Azure and track how much they cost to run
  • Improve performance and reduce compute costs by optimizing query efficiency
  • Compare the costs of running the same workload on different platforms and also different instance types, such as VMs, Managed Instances and Azure SQL DB
