Database Migration to AWS
Move production databases to managed AWS databases with near-zero downtime, validated record by record.
More uptime, safer data and more time for growth. When you move databases from aging on-premises systems to managed AWS databases, the business keeps running while data is copied and kept in sync in the background. Every record is checked, so you move ahead with confidence — without a large IT team. Tyflex guides each step, from planning through go-live and beyond, so you spend less time on patching, backups and firefighting.
The problem
- Aging on-premises database servers that are expensive to patch and keep alive
- Backups, tuning and firefighting eat the time that should go to new features
- Fear of downtime and no clear rollback keeps the migration on the shelf
- Licensing costs that climb every renewal

How it works
- 01
Assess the estate
We catalogue your databases, engines and sizes and pick the target — same engine (homogeneous) or a managed AWS engine (heterogeneous).
- 02
Replicate with DMS
AWS DMS performs the initial load and then streams ongoing changes, keeping source and target in sync with the application still live.
- 03
Validate
Row counts and data validation confirm the target matches the source before any cutover.
- 04
Cut over and hand off
The app repoints to the AWS database in a short window; the source stays available for rollback until you sign off. Backups and monitoring are on from day one.
Frequently asked questions
Only if you want to. DMS handles same-engine moves as well as switches to a managed AWS engine — we recommend based on cost, licensing and effort.
