Migrate to Tiger Cloud

Whether you're moving an existing database to Tiger Cloud or loading data from files and streaming sources, this section has you covered. There are three ways to get your data in: a one-time migration that ends with Tiger Cloud as your primary database, ongoing sync and stream that keeps your source primary and Tiger Cloud as a live replica, or a one-off file upload.
