Azure Database Migration Service

Azure Database Migration Service is a web-based SaaS service for moving databases. It supports database migration and continuous replication, allowing changes to keep moving while a migration is in progress. The service uses a freemium model with a free plan. Its listed Standard Compute option comes in 1, 2, or 4 vCores, while Premium Compute lists 4 vCores; prices are not provided for either option. Discovery and assessment are not supported, and dependency mapping is also not available. That makes the service focused on database movement and ongoing replication rather than preparing an inventory or mapping relationships between systems. Teams can access it through a web platform and select the listed compute configurations according to their migration setup. The product website presents it as an Azure database migration service.

It suits teams moving databases through a web SaaS service, especially when continuous replication is needed. It is less suitable for discovery, assessment, or dependency-mapping work.

Azure Database Migration Service focuses on database movement with continuous replication and a free plan. Consider it when migration is the priority and discovery or dependency analysis is handled elsewhere.
