Tessell is a multi-cloud DBaaS that runs Oracle and other databases on cloud-native Azure, with support for Exadata@Azure for workloads that need it. This comic-style guide walks through how Tessell handles Oracle database migration and management on Azure, using a fictional bank's evaluation as the storyline. The conversations between a DBA, CFO, IT lead, and the Tessell team cover migration, performance, security, cost, HA/DR, backup, and multi-cloud management.
