Part 2
Section 1:
The company you work for today has several on-premise relational databases that range from several hundred gigabytes to several terabytes in size. Most of the databases are considered OLTP processing systems during the daytime and batch processing at night. The database engines are Oracle and SQL server, both database systems are using their latest versions.
Write a 2-page paper that discusses alternative database cloud solutions for Oracle and SQL Server and then discuss the possible migration process involved in moving from their local on-premise databases to their respective database cloud solution. Would the Amazon DynamoDB be a good fit? Why or why not?
Section 2:
Your work for a company that keeps up with product sales from thousands of convenience stores throughout the United States.

The problem is that the data is lagging behind due to latency issues and most of the systems are becoming out dated.
Write a 2-page paper that discusses the following:
- What type of Amazon RDS database instance could help solve their problem? Why?
- How would Amazon Read Replicas reduce Internet latency issues?
- Outside of Amazon, what other cloud solutions could help alleviate some of their current issues? Explain.
Section 3:
Write a college-level research paper that includes the following:
Your reading this week covers a cloud migration strategy. This Assignment is going to expand your knowledge of cloud migration.
