I have a large database in an AWS instance running SQL Server 2008 on a Windows Server 2008 R2.
The database is constantly changing and writing information, and its size is about ~100GB
I wish to migrate from our Amazon services to Microsoft Azure.
But I cannot afford any lost of information more them for more than 20-30 minutes
I don't mind using the Azure SQL or running a SQL Server under a VM in Azure Cloud, but I must keep the databases live and updated, there are few main tables that information is being added to them constantly
What would be the best way to do so ?
if you are using an AWS instance and not RDS and you are going to an Azure instance and not "Azure SQL Database" you can use log-shipping or something similar to get the downtime down to a few seconds: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187103.aspx
The steps you need to take:
3, 4 and 5 is what log-shipping would automate, but you could just write a powershell script too.
