Provisioning DMS Schema Conversion via AWS CloudFormation

Database Blog



This article demonstrates how to provision AWS DMS Schema Conversion using CloudFormation templates to automate database schema conversion from Oracle/SQL Server to PostgreSQL with generative AI capabilities.

  • DMS Schema Conversion is a fully managed, serverless service that converts database objects across heterogeneous systems without requiring desktop installation.
  • Generative AI capabilities use Amazon Bedrock to convert complex stored procedures, triggers, and functions into target engine syntax.
  • CloudFormation template automatically provisions VPC, IAM roles, S3 buckets, Secrets Manager, KMS keys, and DMS resources in under 10 minutes.
  • Supports source databases (Oracle, SQL Server) and target databases (Aurora PostgreSQL, RDS PostgreSQL) with flexible network configuration.
  • Template handles credential management, security group configuration, and encryption setup for production-ready deployments.

The CloudFormation approach eliminates manual setup complexity and enables rapid provisioning of schema conversion infrastructure for database migrations.
