How We Migrated from Heroku Postgres to AWS RDS

说明与用途

将数据库从 Heroku Postgres 迁移到 AWS RDS 提升了可扩展性并降低了成本。

问题

Heroku Postgres was limiting scalability and cost control for Wootric’s growing database needs.

结果

Successful migration with minimal downtime, improved performance, and reduced monthly database costs.

工作流

• 1. Assessed RDS PostgreSQL compatibility and selected instance class
• 2. Created RDS instance and configured security groups
• 3. Used pg_dump to export data from Heroku Postgres
• 4. Restored dump into RDS using pg_restore
• 5. Updated application configuration to point to RDS endpoint
• 6. Performed data integrity checks and performance testing
• 7. Decommissioned Heroku Postgres instance

证据

We used pg_dump to export the database and pg_restore to import it into RDS
