For example, migrating from an on-premise MySQL database to a MySQL database in AWS.<br>SCT automatically converts the source database schema and the majority of database code objects \u2013 including views, stored procedures, and functions \u2013 to a format compatible with the target database. It is also able to report objects that cannot be converted automatically, allowing manual intervention to take place. This ensures that the target database\u2019s schema is as close as possible to the source, minimising post-migration errors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Heterogeneous Migration<\/strong><br>This occurs when the source database platform is different to the target database platform. For example, migrating from an on-premise MS SQL database to a PostgreSQL database in AWS.<br>As the name implies, the Schema Conversion Tool can perform dynamic conversions of schemas between database engines.\u00a0This is particularly useful when migrating and updating legacy systems to AWS, for example.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aws-database-migration-service\">AWS Database Migration Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/dms\/\"><strong>AWS Database Migration Service (DMS)<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;helps migrate databases to AWS quickly and securely, with minimal downtime. It supports both homogenous migrations \u2013 such as Oracle to Oracle, MySQL to MySQL, etc \u2013 and heterogeneous migrations between different database engines \u2013 such as Microsoft SQL Server to Amazon Aurora, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without using tools like DMS, migrating a relational database like MS SQL or MySQL would require a set of steps similar to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Identify or create a read replica<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Perform\u00a0<em>static<\/em>SQL dump (from the read replica)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Import\u00a0<em>static<\/em>SQL dump on the target database<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is simple enough.&nbsp;But, in a situation facing highly volatile data (high write activity), the target data is out of date even before the SQL dump was restored on the target database. Repeating the static dump method will not resolve this, no matter how many times you perform it.&nbsp;For this reason, DBAs will typically perform data migrations within safe maintenance windows (typically in the small hours).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DMS works differently, offering a&nbsp;<em>dynamic<\/em>&nbsp;data migration. That is, it will persist two active DB connections \u2013 one to the source, the other to the target \u2013 and perform an ongoing real-time synchronisation of data from source to target. Deltas are performed entirely automatically, meaning you can sync to the target from a hot DB\u2019s read replica, A\/B test both systems in parallel if you so wish, and then switch over to the target DB.&nbsp;After a nominal period \u2013 to allow read replication to propagate the target \u2013 you simply disable DMS and end the data migration process. In most cases, there is zero downtime during the switchover, although this will depend on how your application\u2019s traffic is routed.&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-dms-work\">How Does DMS Work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"124\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/dms-replication-process-diagram-300x124.webp\" alt=\"aws dms replication process diagram\" class=\"wp-image-579980\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/dms-replication-process-diagram-300x124.webp 300w, https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/dms-replication-process-diagram.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The diagram above illustrates how the DMS replication works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step is to create a DMS replication instance in AWS.&nbsp; For additional performance, it is recommended that you spin up the DMS replication instance in the same subnet as your target database(s).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next step is to create source and target endpoints for the two databases respectively.&nbsp; You will need to configure your VPC Security Groups and NACLs, to allow the DMS instance to connect to both the source database server and the target database in AWS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next step is to start a migration task, which consists of three main phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Full Load<\/strong><br>Essentially a static dump and import; all the data from the source database is loaded to the target database.\u00a0 While the full load is in progress, any changes that occur on the source database are cached on the replication server, ahead of the next phase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cached Changes Application<\/strong><br>Once the full load is complete, the replication server will apply the cached changes to the target database.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ongoing Replication (Change Data Capture<\/strong>)<br>After the cached changes are applied, DMS moves to the ongoing replication phase, applying changes as transactions (deltas).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a very brief introduction to some of the AWS database migration tools.\u00a0It would be impossible to cover all of them in considerable depth in a single blog article, not to mention that your own migration requirements may present unique challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignfull has-secondary-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-4b1fd674 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-969dc29d wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0;flex-basis:40%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-maximise-your-cloud-benefits-with-aws\"><strong>Maximise Your Cloud Benefits with AWS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ebook-preview-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-103149\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-stretch has-secondary-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-main-color has-secondary-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-1 is-layout-flow wp-container-core-group-is-layout-23162e80 wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4a15ae55 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"min-height:0px\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-main-color has-text-color has-medium-small-font-size wp-container-content-42c95ffb wp-block-paragraph\">Ready to migrate to AWS but unsure where to start?
