    Migrating while in operation

    The migration had to be carried out on an operating data center, without interrupting service.

02 · How we solved it

Compute, managed databases, analytics and agile development on Google Cloud

    Within the Google Cloud architecture used for the migration, Compute Engine stands out for computing power and Cloud SQL for migrating the data models to fully managed schemas.

    BigQuery for analytics and Firebase to implement agile development schemes.
