RDS to Cloud SQL Migration
Move your Amazon RDS and Aurora databases to fully managed Google Cloud SQL, schema, data, stored procedures and application connections intact, with continuous replication and a low-downtime cutover.

Move your Amazon RDS and Aurora databases to fully managed Google Cloud SQL, schema, data, stored procedures and application connections intact, with continuous replication and a low-downtime cutover.
Yes, you can migrate from Amazon RDS to Google Cloud SQL. Codimite, a Google Cloud Partner, moves RDS and Aurora databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQL Server) to Cloud SQL using Google's Database Migration Service. For same-engine moves we use continuous replication, so your RDS stays live until a short, validated cutover, preserving schema, data, stored procedures and connections while consolidating your data estate on Google Cloud.
Why migrate
Cloud SQL handles backups, patching, replication and failover, so your team stops babysitting database infrastructure.
Right-sized instances, committed-use discounts and per-second billing typically improve total cost versus an equivalent RDS footprint.
Regional HA with automatic failover and read replicas for scaling reads, configured for you.
Native integration with BigQuery (federated queries, Datastream), GKE, Cloud Run and IAM, instead of bridging AWS to your analytics and apps.
Moving the database alongside other workloads on Google Cloud removes cross-cloud egress and a second cloud bill.
What we migrate
| RDS / Aurora object | Migrates to Cloud SQL | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Schema (tables, indexes, constraints) | Schema on Cloud SQL | Same-engine moves transfer with minimal change; validated table-by-table |
| Data (rows / large tables) | Data via DMS | Continuous replication keeps source and target in sync until cutover |
| Stored procedures, functions, triggers, views | Stored procedures & routines | Tested on Cloud SQL; RDS-specific extensions re-mapped |
| Application connections | Connections & endpoints | Repointed to Cloud SQL via Cloud SQL Auth Proxy / private IP |
| Users, roles & grants | Cloud SQL users & IAM | Mapped to Cloud SQL and Cloud IAM database authentication |
| Parameter / config settings | Cloud SQL flags | Equivalent flags applied; non-portable RDS params flagged early |
Same-engine moves (RDS/Aurora for MySQL or PostgreSQL to Cloud SQL) are the smoothest path. RDS for SQL Server and engine changes need additional schema and procedure work, scoped during assessment.
Our process
We inventory your RDS/Aurora instances, engines, versions, data volume, stored procedures and application dependencies, and confirm what is portable.
We provision Cloud SQL, validate schema and stored procedures, and re-map any RDS-specific extensions or parameters.
Google Database Migration Service performs the initial load and continuous replication, keeping RDS live in parallel.
Row counts, checksums and application tests confirm data integrity and that procedures, queries and connections behave identically.
A short, scheduled switch repoints applications to Cloud SQL once replication is caught up, with a tested rollback path.
Post-cutover performance tuning, monitoring and support through stabilization.

Database Migration Service expertise. We run replicated, low-downtime cutovers rather than risky dump-and-restore.
Data-integrity verification. Checksum and row-count reconciliation proves nothing was lost.
Cross-cloud experience. We handle the AWS networking, IAM and egress details that trip up RDS-to-Cloud-SQL projects.
FAQs
Yes, for same-engine moves, Database Migration Service replicates continuously, so RDS stays live and the cutover is a short, scheduled switch. The exact window depends on your workload, confirmed during assessment.
Yes. Aurora MySQL and Aurora PostgreSQL move to Cloud SQL for MySQL/PostgreSQL; Aurora-specific features are re-mapped to Cloud SQL equivalents.
For same-engine moves they transfer with little change. We test each routine on Cloud SQL and adjust anything that relies on RDS-specific extensions.
Days for a single small database; two to six weeks for a multi-database estate, driven by data volume and application coupling.
