Cloud migrations promise flexibility, scalability, and access to modern AI‑driven capabilities — but they also introduce new risks around performance, cost, and security. In this session, we’ll explore what you need to understand before moving your data platform to the cloud, the practical options for how to migrate, and the strategic considerations that matter most during the transition. Using Redgate Monitor as a guide, we’ll show how to baseline workloads, identify risks, validate performance changes, and apply secure access controls through the Permissions page. You’ll leave with a clear, data‑driven framework for planning a predictable, secure, and successful cloud migration.

AWS & Redgate discuss database migration blockers from the State of the Database Landscape report. Learn where migrations stall, why complexity slows teams down, and practical ways to reduce friction and move toward a cloud-ready data estate.
