Database migration is a critical aspect of modern IT operations, especially when you need to switch database systems while ensuring minimal downtime and data loss.
AWS DMS Serverless is a feature of AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) that provides automatic provisioning, scaling, built-in high availability, and a reduced billing model based on workload changes to increase operations agility and optimize your costs. The serverless feature removes replication instance management tasks like capacity estimation, provisioning, cost optimization, and managing replication engine versions and patching.
The following diagram shows components required to setup AWS DMS Serverless replication setup.
In this post, we explore how to perform a database migration from MySQL to PostgreSQL using the AWS DMS Serverless replication and the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI).
Benefits of the AWS CLI
The AWS CLI serves as a versatile tool for efficiently managing AWS resources. It enables you to automate tasks, integrate AWS functionality into scripts and applications, and work across diverse operating systems. The AWS CLI grants programmatic access to a broad spectrum of AWS services, allowing for flexible customization and efficient resource management. You can securely interact with AWS resources using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and permissions. Overall, the AWS CLI is a powerful, cross-platform solution that streamlines operations, facilitates automation, and offers a consistent interface for AWS resource management.
Benefits of AWS DMS Serverless
AWS DMS Serverless offers several benefits over provisioned instances for database migration and data replication tasks. The following are some of the key advantages:
Simplified management and operation – AWS DMS Serverless removes the need to manually provision, manage, and scale replication instances. It automatically scales resources up or down based on the demand, making sure that your migration tasks always have the resources they need to run efficiently. This hands-off approach saves you time and effort, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your project.
Cost-effectiveness – With AWS DMS Serverless, you don’t have any upfront costs. AWS DMS Serverless autoscaling makes it an attractive option for unpredictable workloads or migrations with fluctuating data volumes. Additionally, AWS DMS Serverless can help you optimize costs by automatically adjusting resource allocation based on real-time migration needs.
High availability – AWS DMS Serverless uses Amazon’s global infrastructure to provide high availability for your migration tasks. The Multi-AZ option automatically replicates AWS DMS data across Availability Zones, ensuring that your migration tasks remain accessible. This redundancy helps protect your business from downtime and data loss.
Scalability – AWS DMS Serverless can scale up or down to handle any workload, from small-scale migrations to large-scale enterprise data transfers. It can automatically adjust resources based on real-time data transfer rates, ensuring that your migration tasks always have the resources they need to run smoothly.
Ease of use – AWS DMS Serverless is straightforward to set up and use. You can create and manage replication tasks using the AWS DMS console or the AWS CLI. There is no need to worry about provisioning or managing underlying infrastructure, which frees up your time to focus on your migration efforts.
Autoscaling for AWS DMS Serverless
AWS DMS Serverless autoscaling relies on monitoring of underlying instance metrics in Amazon CloudWatch to determine when a replication should be scaled up or down for AWS DMS capacity unit (DCUs). As of March 2024, AWS DMS Serverless uses scaling CloudWatch metrics CPUUtilization and CapacityUtilization.
The following is the current scale-up threshold:
CPUUtilization > 90% for 10 datapoints within last 10 mins
CapacityUtilization > 80% for 10 datapoints within last 10 mins
After an scale up event, AWS DMS Serverless doesn’t scale up again for 1 hour
After an scale up event, AWS DMS Serverless doesn’t scale down again for 2 hours
The following is the current scale-down threshold:
CapacityUtilization < 50% for 60 datapoint within last 1 hour
CPUUtilization < 10% for 60 datapoint within last 1 hour
After a scale down event, AWS DMS Serverless doesn’t scale up again for 1 hour
After a scale down event, AWS DMS Serverless doesn’t scale down again for 2 hours
AWSÂ DMSÂ Serverless can also scale up when a failed replication is being retried and resumed after an out-of-memory issue.

You need to migrate data from or to a data source or target that is not supported by AWS DMS Serverless
Solution overview
In the following sections, we go through the steps to migrate a database table from MySQL to PostgreSQL using AWS DMS Serverless replication using the AWS CLI. The high-level steps are as follows:
Create the source and target AWS DMS endpoints.
Identify the AWS DMS replication subnet group and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) security group used to connect the source and target endpoints.
Create the AWS DMS Serverless replication configuration.
Start AWS DMS Serverless replication.
Stop AWS DMS Serverless replication.
(Optional) Modify the AWS DMS Serverless replication configuration.
(Optional) Resume or reload the AWS DMS Serverless replication.
(Optional) Reload a single table while the AWS DMS Serverless replication is running.
(Optional) Check the table statistics of the AWS DMS Serverless replication.
Clean up post-migration.
Prerequisites
You should have the following prerequisites:
The AWS CLI v2 installed and configured with appropriate credentials.
Sufficient IAM permissions to create and configure Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) and AWS DMS resources. For more details, refer to Creating and Amazon RDS DB instance and IAM permissions needed to use AWS DMS, respectively.
MySQL (source) and PostgreSQL (target) database instances set up and accessible on their respective sql ports. For this post, we use RDS DB instances. If your database is outside AWS, you must make sure AWS DMS has connectivity to them. Refer to AWS DMS network setup.
An AWS DMS replication subnet group set up with subnets and a route table that is able to access the source and target DB instances.
An Amazon EC2 Security group set up and allowing a DB instance port connection to the source and target DB instances.
Create the source and target endpoints
Use the following code to define the endpoints for the source MySQL database and the target PostgreSQL database:
Note that we are using the default region as configured in CLI to change you can add –region ap-southeast-2 (for Sydney region) at the end of each command.
# mysql source endpoint

Identify the AWS DMS replication subnet group and EC2 security group
You need to identify the AWS DMS replication subnet group used for the AWS DMS Serverless migration and the EC2 security group name used to connect to the source MySQL database and the target PostgreSQL database. For this post, the replication subnet group has the dms keyword in the name and the EC2 security group has EC2. We use these keywords to search using the –query option and only output the required fields from the AWS CLI command. See the following code:
#find the pre-created DMS replication subnetgroup
aws dms describe-replication-subnet-groups –query “ReplicationSubnetGroups[?contains(ReplicationSubnetGroupIdentifier,’dms’)].{ReplicationSubnetGroupIdentifier:ReplicationSubnetGroupIdentifier}”
# output
[
{
“ReplicationSubnetGroupIdentifier”: “dmsreplicationsubnetgroup-2b2cdefghijklm7no”
}
]
#find the pre-created EC2 Securitygroup
aws ec2 describe-security-groups –query “SecurityGroups[?contains(GroupName,’EC2′)].{grpname:GroupName,id:GroupId}”
# output
[
{
“grpname”: “rds-myClientSG-12AB3CDEFGHIJ”,
“id”: “sg-1123ab4566cd7ef89”
}
]
Create the AWS DMS Serverless replication config
We need to define the AWS DMS Serverless replication config, which is essentially the AWS DMS replication task settings along with the compute config that defines the AWS DMS capacity unit (DCUs) and other options for the underlying AWS DMS Serverless replication instance like MultiAZ, ReplicationSubnetGroupId and VpcSecurityGroupIds. See the following code:
#create replication config
aws dms create-replication-config
–replication-config-identifier climysql2psql
–source-endpoint-arn arn:aws:dms:ap-southeast-2:123456789012:endpoint:ABCD4E67FGHIJJKLMNOPQRSTUUVWXY2ZABCDE3F

Start the AWS DMS Serverless replication
You start the AWS DMS Serverless replication using the replication config ARN and by setting start-replication-type to start-replication. This launches a serverless replication instance and task which connects to the source and the target. See the following code:
#start the replication (dms serverless task)
aws dms start-replication
–replication-config-arn arn:aws:dms:ap-southeast-2:123456789012:replication-config:ABCXXDEFGHIJJXABC4ABC2ABCABCVAB2TNQ3ABC

Stop AWS DMS Serverless replication
When the migration is complete, you can use stop-replication to stop the AWS DMS Serverless replication. With AWS DMS Serverless replication, when the replication type is set to full load only, then AWS DMS Serverless replication stops by itself after loading all the tables. See the following code:
# stop replication
aws dms stop-replication

Reload a specific table of the AWS DMS Serverless replication
If you need to reload a specific table while the AWS DMS Serverless replication is running (only applicable if the replication type is either Full Load and CDC or CDC only), use the following code:
# Reload a single table while the task is running
aws dms reload-replication-tables –replication-config-arn arn:aws:dms:ap-southeast-2:123456789012:replicationconfig:ABCXXDEFGHIJJXABC4ABC2ABCABCVAB2TNQ3ABC –tables-to-reload “SchemaName=mydata,TableName=newtable”
# output
{
“ReplicationConfigArn”: “arn:aws:dms:ap-southeast-2:123456789012:replication-config:ABCXXDEFGHIJJXABC4ABC2ABCABCVAB2TNQ3ABC”
}
Check table statistics of the AWS DMS Serverless replication
If you need to check the table statistics of the tables being migrated, use the following code:
# check table statistics
aws dms describe-replication-table-statistics
–replication-config-arn arn:aws:dms:ap-southeast-2:123456789012:replication-config:ABCXXDEFGHIJJXABC4ABC2ABCABCVAB2TNQ3ABC
# output

# cleanup
# first stop the task
aws dms stop-replication

Conclusion
In this post, we showed how to run an AWS DMS Serverless migration from MySQL to PostgreSQL using the AWS CLI.
After you have set up an AWS DMS Serverless replication, you can attempt to establish a new replication with the type set as change data capture (CDC), specifying a particular starting CDC position. Make sure to add comments detailing the changes you’ve made.
Remember to back up your data before starting the migration process and thoroughly test the application after the migration to confirm that everything works as expected. If you have questions or feedback, leavem them in the comments section.
