Migrating deployment infrastructure containers across different databases

One or more computing devices comprising:

• processors;
• and
• memory;
• the one or more computing devices configured, via computer-executable instructions, to perform operations for migrating deployment infrastructure containers, the operations comprising:
• receiving a command to migrate a deployment infrastructure container from a source database system to a target database system;
• responsive to the command, migrating the deployment infrastructure container, comprising:
• migrating catalog objects from the source database system to the target database system;
• and
• updating the migrated catalog objects at the target database system, comprising updating metadata associated with the migrated catalog objects at the target database system;
• creating a new service instance for the migrated deployment infrastructure container;
• and
• associating the new service instance with the migrated deployment infrastructure container at the target database system.

A method for migrating deployment infrastructure containers, the method comprising:

• creating a new deployment infrastructure container at a target database system;
• migrating design-time artifacts from a deployment infrastructure container at a source database system to the new deployment infrastructure container at the target database system;
• performing a build operation that creates run-time artifacts within the new deployment infrastructure container from the design-time artifacts that were migrated to the new deployment infrastructure container;
• and
• associating a cloud application with the new deployment infrastructure container at the target database system.
