Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about database migration diagram generator

How do I achieve zero-downtime database migration?

Use CDC (Change Data Capture) for continuous replication, maintain dual writes during transition, validate data consistency, then switch reads to new database. Keep old database as fallback until confident.

What about schema differences between databases?

Map data types carefully (Oracle NUMBER → PostgreSQL NUMERIC), convert stored procedures to application logic, handle case sensitivity differences. Show transformation layer for incompatible features.

How do I validate data after migration?

Row counts, checksum comparisons, sample data validation, query result comparisons. Run old and new databases in parallel, comparing outputs. Visualize validation gates before cutover.

Can I rollback a database migration?

Yes! Keep replication running both ways initially, maintain fallback plan with traffic routing, snapshot before cutover. Show rollback decision points and monitoring triggers.

How long does database migration typically take?

Depends on data size and complexity. Initial load might take hours/days, but CDC replication allows staying in sync. Show phases: planning, testing, pilot, production migration with timelines.
