  • Prerequisites
Challenge

View the Source and Destination Databases

You will be connecting to a bastion host or jumpbox server to explore the database you will be migrating, and the database you will be migrating to.

Challenge

Create the Replication Instance

The DMS uses an instance to connect to take data from the source DB and load it into the target. You will be creating a replication instance that will be performing the migration.

Challenge

Create the Migration Endpoints

The replication instances use endpoints to identify where it needs to connect to. In this challenge, you will be creating the source and destination endpoints on DMS.

Challenge

Create the Replication Job

After the replication instance and endpoints have been created, you can then perform the actual migration. You will create the database migration task that will take data from the source and load it into the target database.

Challenge

Validate the Database Migration

Finally, you will then need to verify that the data has arrived at the target. In this challenge, you will connect to the RDS database through the bastion host and verify that the correct number of records have been migrated.
