Migrating SQL Server databases to Amazon RDS for MySQL with DMS Schema

Conversion

This walkthrough gets you started with heterogeneous database migration from Microsoft SQL Server to
Amazon RDS for MySQL. To automate the migration, we use the AWS DMS Schema Conversion. This
service helps assess the complexity of your migration and converts source SQL Server database schemas
and code objects to a format compatible with MySQL. Then, you apply the converted code to your target
database. This introductory exercise shows how you can use DMS Schema Conversion for this migration.

At a high level, this migration includes the following steps:

 Use the AWS Management Console to do the following:

o Create a VPC in the Amazon VPC console.

o Create IAM roles in the IAM console.

o Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the Amazon S3 console.

o Create your target Amazon RDS for MySQL database in the Amazon RDS console.

o Store database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager.

 Use the AWS DMS console to do the following:

o Create an instance profile for your migration project.

o Create data providers for your source and target databases.

o Create a migration project.

 Use DMS Schema Conversion to do the following:

o Assess the migration complexity and review the migration action items.

o Convert your source database.

o Apply the converted code to your target database.

This walkthrough takes approximately three hours to complete. Make sure that you delete resources at
the end of this walkthrough to avoid additional charges.

Migration overview

This section provides high-level guidance for customers looking to migrate from SQL Server to MySQL
using DMS Schema Conversion.

DMS Schema Conversion automatically converts your source SQL Server database schemas and most of
the database code objects to a format compatible with MySQL. This conversion includes tables, views,
stored procedures, functions, data types, synonyms, and so on. Any objects that DMS Schema
Conversion can’t convert automatically are clearly marked. To complete the migration, you can convert
these objects manually.

At a high level, DMS Schema Conversion operates with the following three components: instance
profiles, data providers, and migration projects. An instance profile specifies network and security
settings. A data provider stores database connection credentials. A migration project contains data
providers, an instance profile, and migration rules. AWS DMS uses data providers and an instance profile
to design a process that converts database schemas and code objects.
