Migrating to AlloyDB from PostgreSQL Using Database Migration Service with Explanation | GSP 1084 | Cloud Skills Boost | Qwiklabs

Overview

"In this lab, we're focusing on migrating a stand-alone PostgreSQL database running on a virtual machine to AlloyDB for PostgreSQL. This process leverages a continuous Database Migration Service job, utilizing VPC peering for seamless connectivity between your VPC network and the underlying Google Cloud VPC network where your AlloyDB resources reside.

Migrating a database via Database Migration Service requires some preparatory steps on the source database, such as setting up the pglogical package on the source instance. These tasks have already been completed for you in the source environment.

During this lab, you'll create and run a migration job, confirm the successful initial migration of your database, and explore how continuous migration jobs keep your AlloyDB instance updated with changes from your source database."

In this lab, you learn how to perform the following tasks:
Verify Data in the Source Instance for migration
Create a profile for a source connection to a PostgreSQL instance (e.g., stand-alone PostgreSQL)
Create and start a continuous migration job
Confirm data load in the AlloyDB for PostgreSQL Instance
Propagate a live update to the AlloyDB Instance
