Recurrent Movement of Relational Data Within a Hybrid Cloud

Abstract

Moving data from an on-premise system to the cloud is often seen as a one-off exercise performed as part of a single migration. In a hybrid cloud system it is more typically a continual process in which data is refreshed from systems of record onto the public cloud at some interval. Of particular interest to industry is the data held within commercial relational databases. Data obtained from one or more relational databases may be combined within a system of insight in order to derive useful actionable information. We outline the issues involved in frequently moving such data and describe a system which performs these tasks.
