Tessell "Lifts and Shines" Oracle Databases to Azure: A Modern Approach to Database Migration

Tessell is an innovative Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) platform that enhances the migration and optimization of Oracle databases to Microsoft Azure, surpassing the traditional "lift and shift" method. By "lifting and shining" databases, Tessell provides superior performance and scalability through Azure's robust infrastructure, offering over 1 million input/output operations per second and low latency, even outperforming on-premises systems like Exadata. Tessell ensures enterprise-grade data protection with automated snapshots, log backups, and 1-click recovery, while simplifying patching and upgrades by automating minor version patches. Its high availability and disaster recovery services across multiple regions add reliability to mission-critical databases. Tessell streamlines data management by facilitating the creation and storage of various data formats and secure sharing across different environments, empowering DBAs to focus on more value-added activities. The platform's VPT@Customer model allows for hosting within an organization’s Azure or AWS environment, providing flexibility and operational autonomy. Tessell reduces migration costs by allowing organizations to move databases to Azure without the need for refactoring, subsequently optimizing operations and licensing to further decrease expenses.
