Why Do I Need to Use the mysqldump for Migration?
The tool is easy to use for data migration but causes extended downtime during the migration. Only use this tool when there is not much data to migrate or if extended downtime is not an issue.
RDS is compatible with source database services. The procedure for migrating data from your database to RDS is similar to the procedure for migrating data from one database server to another.
