On-Prem DB Migration to Full-Stack Search Application

A team migrates their on-premises database to the cloud by uploading backups to OSS and importing into RDS as a validated staging layer, then fans out from RDS to OceanBase for distributed OLTP and to Elasticsearch for both structured full-text search and a RAG pipeline backed by OSS-stored documents for semantic retrieval.

Typical questions

FAQ

Q: How do I migrate an on-premises database to the cloud and build a full-stack search application with RAG? A: You perform the migration by uploading database backups to OSS, importing them into RDS as a staging layer, and fanning out to OceanBase and Elasticsearch. OceanBase manages distributed OLTP workloads while Elasticsearch delivers structured full-text search and enables a RAG pipeline for semantic retrieval backed by OSS documents.
