Google Cloud Summit Nordics 2025: Newt Global’s AI‑Driven Oracle to PostgreSQL Migration on Google Cloud with AlloyDB & Cloud SQL

On June 11, 2025, at the bustling Google Cloud Summit Nordics 2025 in Stockholm, Newt Global showcased a compelling demo of their AI‑powered migration platform—bringing Oracle workloads into the modern PostgreSQL ecosystem using Google Cloud’s standout offerings: AlloyDB for PostgreSQL and Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL. This blend of infrastructure portability, performance, and automation underscores how enterprises can confidently phase out proprietary databases and accelerate their data modernization journeys.

Newt Global’s Migration Approach: DMAP + CMC™

At the heart of the presentation was Newt Global’s dual-engine migration framework:

– Cloud Migration Cockpit (CMC™): A rapid 2–4 week assessment and scoping phase that delivers full transparency—a blueprint outlining schema complexity, infrastructure readiness, effort estimation, cost savings, and fixed‑price migration plans. Notably, the CMC™ explicitly supports target solutions of AlloyDB and Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL, ensuring cloud-native alignment from day one.

– Data Modernization Acceleration Platform (DMAP): A robust, AI-led execution engine that automates up to 60–80% of the migration journey. DMAP handles schema conversion, PL/SQL and T‑SQL remediation, data migration, validation, dependency resolution, and rollback safety. Its architecture runs as scalable containers, enabling parallel processing and seamless alignment with Cloud SQL and AlloyDB.

Together, this “triad model” of assessment, AI‑driven conversion, and expert engineering enables medium‑complexity migrations to complete in as little as 12 weeks, compared to traditional timelines that typically stretch to 12 months.

Why AlloyDB and Cloud SQL Matter

During the Summit, Newt Global emphasized Google Cloud’s PostgreSQL-managed services:

– AlloyDB for PostgreSQL brings near‑Spanner-level performance, horizontal scalability, and AI‑ready enhancements—ideal for transactional and analytical workloads alike.
– Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL offers simplicity, reliability, and cost efficiency—perfect for straightforward migration lift‑and‑shift scenarios or as a stepping stone toward AlloyDB in the future.

Through DMAP, both platforms are first-class targets—meaning migrations can flexibly choose based on performance, cost, or long‑term architectural preferences.

Migration Highlights from the Summit

Newt Global’s session was more than a slide deck—it was a real‑time showcase of modernization in action. Attendees witnessed how:

– DMAP, enriched by Google’s Gemini AI models, identified anti‑patterns, converted Oracle-specific syntax (PL/SQL, triggers, sequences), and generated optimized PostgreSQL DDL.
– The platform delivered up to 60% schema conversion by first pass, accelerating delivery timelines significantly.
– The migration stack supports robust rollback, validation, and performance insights, all essential for confidence during production cutovers.
– The entire process targets AlloyDB or Cloud SQL, removing manual middleware work and unlocking cloud-native benefits.

Why It’s a Game-Changer

1. Speed & Agility – Completing an Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migration in ~12 weeks rather than months empowers faster product iteration and deprecation of legacy systems.

2. AI‑Powered Accuracy – Automation of schema conversion and code remediation dramatically reduces manual effort—and human errors. Integration with Gemini models takes this further with intelligent remediation and test generation.

3. Flexible Deployment on GCP – By supporting both Cloud SQL and AlloyDB, Newt Global gives clients the freedom to choose performance or simplicity—and shift later if needed.

4. Transparent Costing & Planning – CMC™ ensures stakeholders know the migration plan, timeline, and investment—removing surprises and aligning expectations early.

5. Cloud‑Native Alignment – Targeting GCP-managed PostgreSQL services ensures teams benefit from Google Cloud’s security, scalability, and ecosystem integrations natively.

Conclusion & Future Outlook

At Google Cloud Summit Nordics 2025, Newt Global made a compelling case: AI‑powered automation, paired with cloud-native databases, provides a fast, low-risk, and future-ready path away from Oracle. AlloyDB invites high-performance use cases; Cloud SQL offers simplicity and reliability—both fully supported through Newt Global’s migration toolkit.

If your organization is navigating Oracle lock-in or pursuing data modernization, consider this journey:

1. Kick off with CMC™ to assess current estate and target readiness.
2. Execute with DMAP to accelerate conversion and validation.
3. Deploy seamlessly to Cloud SQL or AlloyDB, based on your performance and scale needs.
