  1. Using DMS For Migrating to Redshift

  2. Amazon Redshift database is a cloud-based data warehousing solution. Using the Amazon Web Service (AWS) Data Migration Service (DMS), organizations can transfer data from databases supported by AWS DMS to the Amazon Redshift target. However, before starting the process of migration it is necessary to ensure that the AWS account and the AWS region are both in the same cluster as Redshift.

  3. Start the DMS to Redshift Targetdatabase migration by first moving the data to an Amazon S3 bucket with AWS DMS. Once the files are located in the S3 bucket, the intended tables are automatically transferred by S3 to the Amazon Redshift data warehouse. The S3 bucket should be in the same AWS Region as the Redshift database. However, when AWS CLI or DMS API is used for DMS Redshift migration, an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) path have to be set up to get access to S3.

  4. Amazon Redshift provides automated processes in the following cases. •  Modifications made at source tables by incremental data •  Data type mapping and generation of schema •  The total load on database tables at the source •  Synchronization of Change Data Capture (CDC) and full load processes • Changes to application of schema in data definition language (DDL) made in the tables at source. • Follow these points in DMS to Redshift Targetdatabase migration while using Amazon Redshift database as a target AWS DMS.

  5. Use the AWS Management Console to launch the Amazon Redshift cluster. Note down the password, user name, and the name of the database in the AWS account and the Amazon Redshift Cluster. The target endpoint of Amazon Redshift will only then be created with these values. The endpoint of Redshift used by the cluster is to be connected now to the AWS DMS replication instance via this network.  • Finally, in theDMStoRedshift Target database migration,AWS DMS transforms BLOBs, CLOBs, and NCLOBs to a VARCHAR. However, Amazon Redshift does not support data types of VARCHAR which are more than 64 KB.  • However, there are a few specific restrictions of using Amazon Redshift as a target database as it does not support the following.  • AWS DMS does not migrate or replicate a name that starts with an underscore. (_). • The schema name on the target has to be changed through the mapping of transformations. • Finally, AWS DMS offers no support to an application of a DELETE statement to a multi-column primary key. This is especially when the primary key columns are reserved words.  • DMS to Redshift Targetdatabase migration provides fully automatic operations when modifications are made at source tables by incremental data and data type mapping and generation of the schema are carried out. It is also automated when synchronization of Change Data Capture (CDC) is done for full load processes and changes to an application of schema in DDL are made on the tables at the source.
