Using DMS to Migrate MySQL to Amazon Aurora

In this lab, we will be migrating a MySQL database to an Aurora database using the Database Migration Service (DMS). We will create the necessary databases, set up the proper source and target for DMS, and then run a transfer task between the databases. This is an important and powerful tool for someone looking to migrate databases to or within AWS.
