One-Click SQL Server Database Migration
Migrate your SQL Server databases from on-premises to cloud, cloud-to-cloud, or cloud-to-on-premises with minimal downtime. AOHub eliminates the complexity of traditional migrations—no domain trusts, no lengthy backup/restore cycles, just seamless synchronization.
Why AOHub for Database Migration?
60-Second Downtime
Traditional migrations require hours of downtime for full backups, differential backups, and restores. AOHub uses Always On Availability Groups to synchronize your data continuously, reducing cutover time to just 60 seconds.
No Domain Trusts Required
Forget the pain of setting up domain trusts between private and public environments. AOHub uses certificate-based authentication, eliminating the need for service accounts, domains, or credentials.
Cross-Platform & Cross-Cloud
Migrate between Windows and Linux, or between AWS, Azure, GCP, and on-premises environments. AOHub is truly cloud-agnostic and platform-agnostic.
Supported Migration Scenarios
On-Premises to Cloud
Migrate your on-premises SQL Server databases to AWS, Azure, or GCP with minimal disruption. Perfect for cloud adoption initiatives and modernization projects.
Cloud to Cloud
Move databases between cloud providers (AWS to Azure, GCP to AWS, etc.) or between regions within the same cloud. Ideal for multi-cloud strategies and disaster recovery.
Cloud to On-Premises
Repatriate databases from the cloud back to on-premises infrastructure when needed. Maintain flexibility in your infrastructure strategy.
Windows to Linux
Migrate from Windows-based SQL Server to Linux to reduce licensing costs by up to 70%. AOHub handles the cross-platform complexity for you.
How It Works
Register Your Servers
Register your source and target SQL Server instances in AOHub. This can be done through the UI or by importing a CSV file with your server information.
Create Availability Group
AOHub automatically creates an Always On Availability Group between your source and target servers using certificate-based authentication. No domain trusts or service accounts required.
Synchronize Data
Microsoft's Always On technology continuously synchronizes your databases from source to target. AOHub monitors the synchronization status and ensures data integrity.
One-Click Failover
When you're ready to migrate, simply click the failover button in AOHub. Your applications are redirected to the target server in approximately 60 seconds—no lengthy backup/restore cycles.
Traditional Migration vs. AOHub
| Aspect | Traditional Migration | AOHub Migration |
|---|---|---|
| Downtime | 1.5+ hours for backup/restore cycles | 60 seconds for failover |
| Domain Setup | Requires complex domain trusts | Certificate-based auth—no domain trusts |
| Complexity | Manual backups, transfers, and restores | Automated synchronization and failover |
| Risk | Hard cutover—difficult to roll back | Can fail back if needed |
| Cross-Platform | Challenging between Windows and Linux | Seamless Windows ↔ Linux migration |
