Overview

AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) is a cloud service that makes it easy to migrate relational databases, data warehouses, NoSQL databases, and other types of data stores.

Enable this integration to see all your DMS metrics in Datadog.

Setup

Installation

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

Metric collection

  1. In the AWS integration page, ensure that Database Migration Service is enabled under the Metric Collection tab.
  2. Install the Datadog - AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) integration.

Log collection

Enable logging

Configure AWS Database Migration Service to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_dms is set as Target prefix.

Send logs to Datadog

  1. If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.

  2. Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your AWS DMS logs in the AWS console:
