Striim delivers fast, zero downtime migration from cross-cloud and legacy databases to Azure databases including Azure Database for PostgreSQL and Azure Cosmos DB, with ongoing data synchronization to help minimize business disruption
Microsoft and Striim announced an expansion of their strategic relationship with a new assessment and migration managed service providing fast, automated migration of enterprise databases from on-premises or a cloud to Microsoft Azure databases. This collaboration accelerates the data modernization journey to Azure, helping enterprises modernize their business applications and deploy new cloud-native applications, while maintaining business continuity. This service offering is the latest addition to Striim’s relationship with Microsoft, which currently provides continuous, real-time data movement and in-stream transformations to Azure data and analytics services.
Fast, Reliable Migration to Microsoft Azure Databases
The new Striim Database Migration Service, StreamShift, now supports enterprises moving from database sources such as Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, and MongoDB to Microsoft Azure. The service helps accelerate the transition to Azure Cosmos DB, Azure Database for MySQL, Azure Database for MariaDB, and Azure Database for PostgreSQL. Customers can run the legacy source and target Azure database simultaneously during migration, ensuring there is no application outage.

Real-Time Reporting and Analytics Via Continuous Data Replication
Striim enables ongoing, continuous data replication from a wide variety of sources, both on-premises and in the cloud, making operational data immediately available for reporting and analytics. Striim performs in-flight data processing such as filtering, transformations, and enrichment before delivering with sub-second latency to Azure targets such as Azure Synapse, Azure Cosmos DB, Azure Data Lake Storage, and Azure Event Hubs for real-time visibility into data across the enterprise.
