Upgrade Your MySQL Version with Minimal Downtime: Our Journey with Google Cloud’s Data Migration…

Google Cloud provides a reliable and efficient upgrade tool for MySQL instance using the Data Migration Service (DMS) . The migration process involves the creation of a connection profile on the source instance, creating a read replica with minimal load on the primary instance, and creating a dump.

You can use a continuous snapshot or ongoing change migration job to minimize downtime. The DMS tool simplifies the migration process and provides step-by-step guidance. To ensure data integrity and maximum safety, you must create an SSL client certificate on the source instance for secure communication between the source and destination instances.

Also, when done correctly, you can use DMS to migrate from an on-premise instance or different cloud provider to Google Cloud.
