Summary

YugabyteDB Voyager 1.5 introduces powerful new live migration features from Oracle with optional fall-forward capabilities, aiming to simplify and speed up app and data migrations while reducing risks. This release includes a live migration workflow that migrates data behind the scenes without disrupting application availability or performance. The feature also offers a fall-forward approach, which creates a replica database to reduce risk during data migrations. Additionally, Voyager 1.5 introduces new customizations, enhanced security features, and provides a sneak peek at a portfolio assessment capability planned for delivery soon. This tool aims to solve common migration pain points by providing a detailed assessment of applications and databases, offering guidance on migration complexity, and guiding users through the migration process with minimal effort.
