MongoDB and MariaDB migration to Azure Cloud

Question

I have got MongoDB and MariaDB on premise databases. I am planning to move to Azure cloud.
Do Azure provide an option to host MongoDB and MariaDB on cloud.
Before migration i would like to do an assessment of an existing MongoDB and MariaDB, does anyone know tools which i can use for same.
Also if Azure has an option to host MongoDB and MariaDB, which migration tool will let me do this migration from on-prem to cloud.

Answer 1

Hi,

MongoDB is not tied to one cloud platform or any other specific usage model. It can be installed on-premise, in a cloud, or used as a database-as-a-service in all three major public clouds (Microsoft Azure, AWS, Google Cloud Platform).

Azure already offers a service called "Azure Database for MariaDB", so yes MariaDB can be hosted on Azure.

For the assessment and migrations, have a look at the Azure Database Migration Guide over here:

Hi,

If you are using MongoDB Atlas, you can try this -

if you want to move to CosmosDB from MongoDB
