Announcing auto migration of EC2 databases to Amazon RDS using AWS Database Migration Service

AWS announces a “1-click move to managed” feature for Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) that enables you to easily and seamlessly migrate your self-managed MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MariaDB databases to an equivalent Amazon RDS or Amazon Aurora database.

Using the 1-click move to managed functionality on the Amazon RDS console, you can migrate your self-managed databases running on an Amazon EC2 server to a managed Amazon RDS or Aurora database. This feature eliminates the infrastructure set up burden and makes it easy and seamless to re-platform your application’s database workload to Amazon RDS. Amazon RDS leverages Data Migration Service (DMS) homogeneous migration APIs to abstract and automate the entire process, including networking and system configuration, required to initiate and complete the migration. The process is flexible, scalable, and cost effective because the entire migration is performed using a temporary environment and using native database tools.

The RDS 1-click move to managed feature is now available on the RDS console in AWS commercial regions where homogeneous data migrations are supported. Get started today by visiting the Amazon RDS Console. Refer the RDS user guide or Aurora user guide to learn more.
