After you migrate your database to the new server, just change your DSN. 
That varies by database, but will look something like:

   dbi:mysql:database=yourdbname;host=db.host.name

Your DSN is probably set in catalog.cfg or products/variable.txt.

You'll need to restart Interchange. It's probably a good idea to change 
your password on the old database or turn off the MySQL server altogether 
if you can, to make certain you're not accidentally still connecting to 
it.
