Look inside

Nextstellar Corp is a media company with huge amounts of data to analyze. Some of that data is sitting in a PostgreSQL database, which is used for both authentication management and decision-making, as well as maintaining user preferences and feedback. Your boss doesn’t want that data sitting in the database—he wants it in the cloud! Moving it is exactly what you’ll be doing in this liveProject. You’ll use AWS Database Migration Service to enrich Nextstellar’s data lake with the PostgreSQL database so it can take full advantage of both modern data architecture and the AWS ecosystem.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
