The _data_ yes, the _database_ no. The data will get migrated to different solutions at different times. I've lost track of how often I've been porting MySQL to SQL Server, SQL Server to Postgres, Postgres to Mongo, Mongo to cloud etc.
EDIT: fixed capitalization of "PostGres"
- winnebago 3y agoThis really depends on the size of your data set. If you have a large database (TBs+) it's likely to be very long-lived due the effort/hardware resources a migration requires - especially if you want to improve the schema when migrating.

- jhardy54 3y agoFriendly suggestion: the conventional capitalization is either Postgres or PostgreSQL.
