Documentation
Convenient data transfer
The service is easy to use. You don’t need to install any drivers, and the entire migration process is configured via the management console in just a few minutes.
Continuous performance
The service lets you keep your source database running and minimize the downtime of the applications that use it.
Reliability
The service restarts jobs itself if any problems occur. If it can’t continue from the desired point in time, it automatically returns to the previous migration stage.

Implement your projects using Yandex Data Transfer

Migrate homogeneous databases

If source and target databases are the same, meaning their schemas, data types, and code are compatible, you can transfer your data to and from Yandex.Cloud in a couple of clicks in a disaster recovery scenario.

Organize the development process

You can quickly deploy a test environment in the cloud infrastructure, and Data Transfer will provide an up-to-date copy of your product environment.

Merge multiple databases

Use Yandex Data Transfer to consolidate multiple source databases in one target database. For example, when you migrate to Yandex.Cloud, you can combine your data in a single managed database.

Getting started

Specify the source and target and transfer your database.

You need to start a transfer, which is the process of transmitting data between two endpoints. The endpoints contain the settings of the source database you’re going to transfer the data from and those of the target database for your data.
