Migration in flight — sound familiar?
- ▸ SEQUENCE / AUTO_INCREMENT divergence — MariaDB SEQUENCE objects don't exist on upstream MySQL or PostgreSQL targets — IDs collide or wrap differently after cutover.
- ▸ JSON column behaviour drift — MariaDB's JSON is text-based, MySQL's is binary, PostgreSQL JSONB is fully indexable — your queries return different result orderings on the target.
- ▸ Galera flow control mid-SST — Adding a donor for cluster-mode migration triggers flow control; writes stall cluster-wide and the SST itself never completes.

Our Migration Process
A proven four-phase methodology that ensures every migration is executed with precision, validated thoroughly, and completed with minimal disruption.
Assessment & Planning
Comprehensive analysis of your source database, application dependencies, data volumes, and migration complexity. We deliver a detailed migration plan with timeline, risk assessment, and rollback strategy.
Schema & Compatibility Analysis
Detailed schema review, data type mapping, stored procedure conversion, and query compatibility testing. We identify and resolve every incompatibility before touching production data.
Data Migration & Validation
Replication-based data synchronization with continuous validation. Table-level checksums, row counts, and application-level integrity tests confirm zero data loss throughout the process.
Cutover & Go-Live
Coordinated switchover with less than 5 minutes downtime. Application connection redirection, final consistency verification, performance monitoring, and rollback readiness throughout.
Why Choose Our MariaDB Migration Services?
Every migration is backed by rigorous testing, transparent communication, and battle-tested tooling to ensure a smooth transition with no surprises.
Minimal Downtime (<5 Minutes)
Our replication-based migration approach keeps your source database running throughout the process. The only downtime occurs during the final cutover when we redirect application connections to the new MariaDB instance.
Comprehensive Compatibility Testing
We test every query, stored procedure, view, and trigger against the target MariaDB version. Automated compatibility reports highlight issues before migration begins, so nothing breaks in production.
Documented Rollback Planning
Every migration includes a fully tested rollback plan. We maintain your original database in sync until the migration is validated in production, giving you a safe path back at any point during the process.
Multi-Layer Data Validation
Zero data loss is verified through table-level checksums, row-count comparisons, referential integrity checks, and application-level data validation tests run before, during, and after migration.
