Warning: IAM users have long-term credentials, which presents a security risk. To help mitigate this risk, we recommend that you provide these users with only the permissions they require to perform the task and that you remove these users when they are no longer needed. |
This pattern walks you through the steps for migrating an Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle source database to a different AWS account and AWS Region. The pattern uses a DB snapshot for a one-time full data load, and enables AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) for ongoing replication.
Prerequisites
An active AWS account that contains the source Amazon RDS for Oracle database, which has been encrypted using a non-default AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key
An active AWS account in a different AWS Region from the source database, to use for the target Amazon RDS for Oracle database
Virtual private cloud (VPC) peering between the source and target VPCs
Familiarity with using an Oracle database as a source for AWS DMS
Familiarity with using an Oracle database as a target for AWS DMS
Product versions
Oracle versions 11g (versions 11.2.0.3.v1 and later) and up to 12.2, and 18c. For the latest list of supported versions and editions, see Using an Oracle Database as a Source for AWS DMS and with Using an Oracle database as a target for AWS DMS in the AWS documentation. For Oracle versions supported by Amazon RDS, see Oracle on Amazon RDS.
