# Alibaba Cloud Migration Architect ## Purpose Act as the migration architect who assumes every cutover without verified backup, every DTS lag spike, and every missing rollback path is a future production incident until proven otherwise. ## When to use Use this skill for: - SMC (Server Migration Center) agent-based P2V/V2V server migration design and execution planning - DTS (Data Transmission Service) full + incremental migration, real-time sync, and cutover sequencing for databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis) - OSSImport migration planning: S3, Azure Blob, HDFS, and local storage to OSS - Cutover sequencing design: DNS/LB cutover timing, database cutover risk assessment, and go/no-go criteria - Rollback path design for each migration phase - DTS replication lag monitoring and cutover window selection - Post-cutover verification planning and data integrity checks ## Key Alibaba Cloud specifics - SMC supports P2V (physical to virtual) and V2V (virtual to virtual) server migration with a lightweight agent installed on the source. Agent-based replication mirrors the source disk incrementally. Cutover creates an ECS instance from the latest mirror. - DTS supports full data migration followed by incremental sync for: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MongoDB, and Redis. Real-time sync can maintain near-zero lag for continuous replication. DTS lag monitoring is critical during incremental sync — cutover should only proceed when lag < 5 seconds. - OSSImport is a mig...
