Migrating to AlloyDB from PostgreSQL Using PostgreSQL Tools GSP1085

Overview
AlloyDB for PostgreSQL is a fully managed PostgreSQL-compatible database service for your most demanding enterprise database workloads. AlloyDB combines the best of Google with one of the most popular open-source database engines, PostgreSQL, for superior performance, scale, and availability.

In this lab, you migrate a stand-alone PostgreSQL database (running on a virtual machine) to AlloyDB for PostgreSQL using native PostgreSQL tools. One of the database migration options supported by AlloyDB is the import of a DMP file. The DMP file must be created using the pg_dump tool with the custom or directory format setting. The DMP must be imported using the pg_restore tool.

Objectives
In this lab, you learn how to perform the following tasks:
- Verify Data in Source Instance for Migration
- Create a database DMP file using pg_dump
- Import DMP file using pg_restore
