Cloud Wars Live with Bob Evans

Database Migration: One Year or One Click? | Foley on Data

Episode Notes

The Big Themes:

• We launched the Cloud Database Report in February: Sign up now via the Cloud Wars website.
• Moving data to the cloud is more complicated than it seems: Will your next database migration project take one year, or one click? 
• Snowball, Snowcone, Snowmobile: Snowmobile is an 18-wheeler. It’s a tractor trailer that they back up to your data container and upload a hundred petabytes at a time.
• InterSystems has been around for 40 years: They have deep expertise and proven technologies, and they’re expanding into new spaces.

The Big Quote:

“I think of Snowflake as the Robinhood of databases.”
