Migrating from MySQL to Amazon RDS

In this course, AWS Hero Alex DeBrie demonstrates the step-by-step process of migrating a MySQL database to Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS). You can either watch Alex explain the steps of the migration process or follow along using your own Amazon Web Services (AWS) account or the AWS Free Tier. Amazon RDS is a fully managed service for running relational databases on AWS. It handles instance failover, data backups, and software updates. It supports six different database engines, including open-source options such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB. With Amazon RDS, AWS manages your database operations, freeing your developers to focus on innovation that's core to your business. And finally, millions of customers around the world rely on the efficiencies of the AWS Cloud to provide fast, affordable, and reliable database options.
