Key Benefits of Amazon Web Service DMS



What are the key benefits of AWS data migration?

•Negligible downtime: One of the critical benefits of AWS data migration is that the database at source from where the data is being migrated remains fully functional and operational during the migration. There is no need for stopping work. It is especially beneficial for large data-dependent organizations. 

•User-friendly: It is not necessary to install drivers or make changes to the source database when moving data through AWS data migration as the service runs the process directly from the AWS Management Console. Database migration is automated as DMS straightaway replicates the data at the source. 

•Cost-effective: Organizations have to pay only for the volume of storage and computing resources used during migration and without any fixed charges. Hence, AWS data migration service is a very cost-effective tool.

•Reliability: The source and the target databases are monitored closely during loading by the Data Migration Service. Thus, corrective action is taken immediately for any issues that might arise during migration. If the process is interrupted for any reason, migration resumes from that point only once the issues are resolved.

AWS data migration service supports the most widely-used open-source applications including homogeneous and heterogeneous migrations. 

Amazon Web Service Data Migration Service (AWS DMS) is considered to be the optimal method for migrating databases from one endpoint to another, that is, from a source database to a target database. There is a precondition though for using this service for migration. Since AWS DMS is based in the cloud, one of the two databases involved in the migration process has to be in the cloud too. Further, data can be migrated between the most used applications and databases.
