Cloud database migration services in Sydney, Melbourne & beyond
Move to the cloud without the risk. codeSource’s Sydney-based DBA experts plan, run and check every step of your database migration, so your critical systems move securely with little downtime and no data loss.
A seamless transition for your team
A migration shouldn’t bring your business to a stop. Too often, cloud projects run over time and over budget, and data problems turn up only after go-live. Your team shouldn’t have to deal with broken integrations, missing records or slow applications on day one.
We plan the whole migration ahead of time. We map dependencies, test every stage and schedule cutovers around your business hours. The move happens quietly in the background, and your team can keep working as normal.
End-to-end cloud database migration services
A successful migration starts well before any data moves. Our cloud database migration services cover the full lifecycle: discovery and assessment, architecture design, cost modelling, the migration itself, and optimisation afterwards. We work as an extension of your team.
We choose the right approach for each workload, whether that’s lift-and-shift, re-platforming or full modernisation, so your new environment is built to scale from day one.
SQL server to Azure migration
Moving SQL Server workloads to Azure takes more than a backup and restore. We check compatibility, fix deprecated features, and choose the right target for each database: Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Managed Instance or SQL Server on Azure VMs.
Our DBA experts right-size your compute and storage, tune performance after the move, and set up high availability. Your applications should run as well as they did before, or better.
AWS database migration & hybrid environments
Every cloud strategy is different. For AWS database migration, we move workloads to Amazon RDS, Aurora or EC2 using proven tools and continuous replication, which keeps cutover windows as short as possible. For businesses with a mix of on-premise and cloud systems, we design hybrid architectures that keep your data in sync and secure.
Validation, security & post-migration optimisation
Moving the data is only half the job. We check data integrity with row counts, checksums and application testing before we sign off. We also set up encryption, access controls and backups to meet your compliance requirements. After go-live, we keep monitoring performance and cost so you get the value you expected from the cloud.

Frequently asked questions
What's included in your cloud database migration services?
We cover the full migration lifecycle. That includes an audit of your current environment, dependency mapping, target architecture design, cloud cost estimates, a detailed migration plan, the migration itself, data checks, cutover support and performance tuning after the move. You work directly with our Sydney-based DBA experts throughout.
How much downtime should we expect during migration?
It depends on your database size, your target platform and the migration method. Where possible, we use continuous replication to keep the source and target in sync, which cuts the final cutover to a short, scheduled window. We plan cutovers outside your peak business hours to limit disruption.
Should we migrate SQL Server to Azure or AWS?
It depends on your existing licensing, applications, in-house skills and long-term strategy. Businesses heavily invested in Microsoft often benefit from Azure’s licensing advantages, while others may find AWS a better fit. We’re platform-agnostic, so we assess your environment and recommend the option that best balances performance, cost and future flexibility.
How do you make sure no data is lost during migration?
Every migration includes several checkpoints: full backups before we start, trial migrations in a test environment, and data checks after the move using row counts, checksums and application testing. We also keep a documented rollback plan, so if anything unexpected happens we can safely return to the source system.
Can you support us after the migration is complete?
Yes. Many clients move straight onto our database managed services after migration. We provide 24/7 monitoring, performance tuning, cost optimisation and security patching to keep your new cloud environment stable and efficient.
