help Google Cloud Database Migration Service FAQ
Which databases can Google Cloud Database Migration Service move?
Supported paths include homogeneous migrations for MySQL and PostgreSQL into corresponding Google Cloud services. Google also supports selected heterogeneous paths, including migrations from Oracle or SQL Server into PostgreSQL-compatible destinations, but version eligibility must be checked for each path.
How does Database Migration Service minimize downtime?
It can perform an initial load and then continuously replicate ongoing source changes. Applications can be switched after replication lag is acceptably low, reducing the length of the final cutover window.
Is Google Cloud Database Migration Service the same as CloudEndure Migration?
No. CloudEndure is an AWS-owned server migration and disaster-recovery technology, while Database Migration Service is a Google Cloud product focused on database migration.
Does Google charge separately for Database Migration Service?
Google states that supported homogeneous migrations to Cloud SQL or AlloyDB are offered without an additional DMS service charge. The destination database, storage, and applicable network traffic can still generate normal Google Cloud costs.
