APAC Database Modernization: Moving from Oracle and SQL Server to PostgreSQL on Google Cloud

APAC is entering a decisive phase in its cloud transformation, and database modernization is at the center of it. Across India and Indonesia, enterprises are actively looking to escape high Oracle and SQL Server licensing costs, vendor lock-in, and legacy database platforms that slow innovation and block AI adoption.

To address these challenges, Newt Global and Google Cloud are hosting exclusive, in-person events in Jakarta and Bangalore, demonstrating a low-risk, proven approach to modernizing Oracle and SQL Server workloads to PostgreSQL on Google Cloud.

These sessions focus on real architectures, automated migration using Newt Global DMAP, and practical strategies to make enterprise data cloud-native and AI-ready.

Why Database Modernization in APAC Can’t Wait

Many APAC enterprises still run mission-critical applications on traditional databases that were never designed for cloud-native scalability, modern analytics, or AI workloads.

Over time, organizations face:

  • Escalating Oracle and SQL Server licensing renewals

  • Increasing complexity from custom PL/SQL and T-SQL code

  • Limited integration with AI, machine learning, and real-time analytics platforms

Key questions APAC leaders are asking

  • How can we reduce Oracle or SQL Server costs without disrupting business operations?

  • What is the safest way to migrate to a cloud-native PostgreSQL platform?

  • How do we prepare enterprise data for AI, advanced analytics, and tools like Gemini?

The Newt Global and Google Cloud APAC database modernization events are designed to answer these questions with proven migration patterns, real customer examples, and expert-led discussions.

DMAP: A Faster, Safer Path Off Legacy Databases

One of the biggest barriers to database modernization is risk—complex schemas, tightly coupled applications, and years of embedded database logic.

Newt Global’s DMAP (Database Modernization Acceleration Platform) addresses this by automating the migration from Oracle and SQL Server to PostgreSQL on Google Cloud.

What DMAP delivers

  • 12-week guaranteed heterogeneous database modernization for selected workloads

  • Up to 80% reduction in manual conversion effort, accelerating migrations by nearly 2×

  • 80–90% automation across database objects and application code

  • Lower long-term infrastructure, licensing, and DBA costs on Google Cloud services such as Cloud SQL and AlloyDB

For CIOs and CTOs, this turns modernization from a risky, multi-year project into a time-bound initiative with predictable outcomes and measurable ROI.

Why Google Cloud for PostgreSQL Modernization

Google Cloud provides a robust, enterprise-grade foundation for PostgreSQL-based databases through managed services like:

  • Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL

  • AlloyDB for PostgreSQL

These services eliminate legacy lock-in while delivering high availability, performance, security, and elastic scaling.

Once migrated, enterprise data can seamlessly integrate with:

  • Google Cloud AI and analytics services

  • Gemini and other Google AI tools

  • Real-time dashboards, ML-driven automation, and advanced decision intelligence

These capabilities are significantly harder—and more expensive—to implement on traditional Oracle or SQL Server stacks.
