The Database Migration Service of AWS migrates databases quickly and securely to Amazon Web Service. The advantage here is that the source database is fully functional and users can work during the migration process. This minimizes downtime for applications that depend on the source database. AWS DMS ensures that data is migrated from the most commonly used open-source and commercial databases.
AWS database migration service supports two types of migration – homogeneous and heterogeneous migration. AWS DMS continually replicates data with high availability and combines databases into a petabyte-size data warehouse by streaming data to Amazon Redshift and Amazon S3. Amazon offers its AWS database migration service for free for six months when databases are being migrated to Amazon Aurora, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon DynamoDB.
Homogeneous Database Migration In this type of AWS database migration service, both source and target database engines are the same. These include Oracle to Amazon RDS for Oracle, MySQL to Amazon Aurora, MySQL to Amazon RDS for MySQL, or Microsoft SQL Server to Amazon RDS for SQL Server. It is a one-step process as the database code, schema structure, and database types are matched between source and target databases.
Heterogeneous Database MigrationHere the source and the target database engines are different. Examples of AWS database migration service is Oracle to Amazon Aurora, Oracle to PostgreSQL, or Microsoft SQL Server to MySQL migrations. A schema and code transformation are required since schema structure and data types are different.
