AWS DMS homogeneous PostgreSQL migrations can transfer source schema objects.

The Claim

AWS Database Migration Service homogeneous migrations from PostgreSQL can migrate source database schema objects to a compatible PostgreSQL target.

Verified by Lenz ·

The Short Version

AWS documentation clearly confirms this capability. DMS homogeneous PostgreSQL migrations use native PostgreSQL tools such as pg_dump and pg_restore to move schema objects to compatible PostgreSQL targets, including supported Amazon RDS and Aurora configurations. Compatibility requirements and object-specific limitations may still apply.

Caveats

  • The supporting sources are primarily AWS-authored rather than institutionally independent.
  • Source and target PostgreSQL versions and configurations must be compatible.
  • Some schema objects may require prerequisites, permissions, extensions, or manual handling.
