How do database migration services work?

Here are the three steps to demonstrate how database migration services work:

1. Create an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account and select the type of database you want to migrate.
2. Choose your new database's instance size, storage type, and other settings.
3. Once these details are configured, the migration service will transfer your data to the AWS cloud.

The process typically takes a few hours to complete. During this time, your database will be unresponsive.
