Aurora (MySQL compatible) target

In this page, you will inspect the target database after migration.

  1. Open MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE from within the EC2 server, and click on Target Aurora RDS (MySQL) database connection that you created earlier.

  2. Inspect the migrated data, by querying one of the tables in the target database. For example, the following query should return a table with two rows:

    Note: expand only for the source in your scenario you can skip the other sources.

    For Oracle Source expand this
    For SQL Server Source expand this

    Baseball, and football are the only two sports that are currently listed in this table. In the next section you will insert several new records to the source database with information about other sport types. DMS will automatically replicate these new records from the source database to the target database.

  3. Before running the next script block we will need to change preferences in MySQL Workbench. Go to Edit from menu then Preferences then SQL Editor and increase DBMS Connection read and timeout settings to 600 vs. defaults like below

  4. Now, disconnect your MySql workbench & reconnect to ensure the preference changes take effect. To do this click the X on the MySQL Target tab besides the home icon upper left then double click on the MySQL Target connection box to reconnect

  5. Use the following script that matches your source database selected to enable the foreign key constraints that we dropped earlier. Within MySQL Workbench, copy and paste the sql below and execute it.

    Note: this will take a long time to complete you can move onto the next step while it is running. If errors occur they can be ignored or resolved later.

    For Oracle Source expand this
    For SQL Server Source expand this
  6. Execute the script above for the source you selected

Baseball, and football are the only two sports that are currently listed in this table. In the next section you will insert several new records to the source database with information about other sport types. DMS will automatically replicate these new records from the source database to the target database.
