Checking Migration Results

You can use either of the following methods to check the migration results:

  1. Use DRS to compare migration objects, users, and data of source and destination databases and obtain the migration results. For details, see Checking Migration Results on the DRS Console.
  2. Log in to the destination instance to check whether the databases, tables, and data are migrated. For details, see Checking Migration Results on the RDS Console.
