Considerations When Moving from DAS to RDS

  • Expect renaming of views — All replicated objects are exposed as views. The precise naming convention is cloud service specific but expect the names to differ from those in DAS.

  • Extensions must be separated — Move custom tables, packages, procedures, and other database objects into the extension schema.

  • Plan for fixed data set — Customers cannot replicate arbitrary objects into RDS.

  • Monitor consumption — Oracle manages ADW, but customers must keep an eye on storage and CPU usage.
