AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) is a managed migration and replication service that helps move your databases to AWS securely with minimal downtime and zero data loss. You can use this service for both homogeneous or heterogeneous migrations. Data migration challenges can vary depending on the size of the data, complexity of the data […]

Because organizations store a large amount of their data in relational databases, there is a clear impetus to augment these datasets using generative artificial intelligence (AI) foundation models to elevate end-user experiences. In this post, we explore how to integrate Amazon Aurora MySQL-Compatible Edition with a generative AI model using Amazon Aurora Machine Learning. We walk […]

Amazon Aurora MySQL-Compatible Edition offers multiple authentication methods to securely authenticate database user access and meet different security needs. The most common method of authentication is using a user name and password. This can create additional overhead for both users and database administrators to manage and rotate these credentials; it also requires additional investments in […]

A knowledge graph combines data from many sources and links related entities. Because a knowledge graph is a gathering place for connected data, we expect many of its entities to be similar. When we find that two entities are similar to each other, we can materialize that fact as a relationship between them. In this […]

Organizations want to move their critical Oracle workloads to Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle with minimal downtime and disruption to unlock the agility, elasticity, and innovation of the AWS Cloud. In this post, we explore options for migrating Oracle databases from a legacy platform (for example HPUX, AIX, SOLARIS and others) to […]

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the high-level architecture of multi-threaded full load and change data capture (CDC) settings to tune related parameters for better performance to replicate data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Streams target using AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS). In Part 2, we provided some examples of how we […]

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the architecture of multi-threaded full load and change data capture (CDC) settings, and considerations and best practices for configuring various parameters when replicating data using AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) from a relational database system to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. In this post, we demonstrate the […]

AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) makes it possible to replicate to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams from relational databases, data warehouses, NoSQL databases, and other types of data stores. You can use Kinesis data streams to collect and process large streams of data records in real time. Replicating data changes to a Kinesis data stream […]

This post is a continuation of our series on scaling your relational database for software as a service (SaaS). SaaS providers commonly use relational databases, such as Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) and Amazon Aurora, in their solutions. In Part 1, we looked at some common ways to scale or optimize your relational database […]
