Overview of the Redis Data Migration Solution

This section describes how to migrate services to GeminiDB Redis. If you have any questions about the migration, submit a service ticket to obtain technical support.

Migration Tool

Data Replication Service (DRS): supports full data migration and incremental data migration and provides secure, stable, and reliable migration links. For details, see Migration Solution Overview.
Redis-Shake tool: is an open-source migration tool that supports migration modes such as full scanning (rump), data restoration (restore), and incremental synchronization (sync). You can download the tool to an ECS and use CLI to facilitate migration.

Required Permissions

Ensure that the database port is enabled in the security group of the GeminiDB Redis instance.
