Optimizing Data Management and Reducing Costs through Migration from Oracle to Azure File System and Azure Blob using Newt Global’s DMAP

Summary:

This document talks about moving a lot of data (around 70 terabytes) from Oracle to Azure File System (AFS) and Azure Blob (BLOB) using a tool called DMAP made by Newt Global. The customer was spending a lot of money, about $100,000 every month, to handle their data in Oracle. They needed to move recent data from Azure Hyperscale PostgreSQL to AFS/BLOB, which was about 20 terabytes. They also wanted to check if the new system worked well with their programs.

Problem:

The customer was having trouble managing their data in Oracle. It cost too much, and they needed to move recent data to AFS/BLOB. They also wanted to check if their programs could work with the new system.

Solution:

They used DMAP to figure out how to move the data and set up AFS properly. DMAP helped to change the data into a format called ORC and move it to AFS/Blob using many computers. They checked if the data moved correctly and made sure it matched the original data. They also made a dashboard to see how the move was going in real-time. They tested if their programs could read the new data from AFS.

Impact:

Moving the data from Oracle and Azure Hyperscale PostgreSQL to Azure File System and Azure Blob saved a lot of money for the customer. They finished the move on time without any mistakes. They estimated they would save more than a million dollars every year by switching from Oracle to Azure. This helped them save almost $100,000 each month and use Azure’s better system for their data.

Conclusion:

This document shows how we moved over 70 terabytes of data from Oracle and Azure Hyperscale PostgreSQL (COSMOS) to Azure File System and Azure Blob using Newt Global’s DMAP. This move helped the customer save a lot of money – nearly $100,000 every month. They were able to do this by using Azure’s big and secure system to manage their data. With Newt Global’s DMAP, the customer could move their data in a big way. They could also check if the data was right compared to the original database and test out the API using the new data in AFS in ORC format. Overall, shifting to Azure using DMAP gave the customer a modern, big, and cheap way to manage their data.
