Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for database migration. Source databases are migrated to a target data environment by receiving a user selection of one or more of the source databases; receiving a user selection of a target data environment profile; receiving a user selection of one or more storage options for the target data environment; and providing the user with an assessment of whether one or more of the selected source databases can be one or more of migrated and consolidated to the selected target data environment. A user can specify a backup and recovery profile for the migrated database. Metadata affinity can optionally be analyzed for a plurality of the selected source databases to identify an affinity correlation across the selected source databases. Scripts and/or transform blueprints can be generated for the selected target data environment (optionally based on rule-based best practices).
