What do you dislike about AWS Database Migration Service?

AWS Database Migration Service is great for migrating on-prem Database, EC2 DB or AWS RDS to AWS AuroraDB or vice versa. But it has few restrictions on the number of requests of 100 API requests per second. It support limited versions of Oracle and MySQL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Database Migration Service solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our services run on-prem, which persists data into the on-prem SQL server 2019. During our cloud migration process, we used AWS Database Migration Service to move our on-prem DB to AWS AuroraDB with minimal downtime by using Veeam Backup for storing snapshots for failsafe recovery. The whole migration was successful and took about one month. We noticed the performance increase post migrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
