AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) Schema Conversion with GenAI is now available in nine additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Osaka, Sydney), Europe (Ireland, London, Stockholm, Paris), Canada (Central) and US East (Ohio). This feature leverages Amazon Bedrock foundation models—including Claude 3.5 Sonnet v2, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, and Claude Sonnet 4—to automate database schema and code conversion, helping organizations accelerate their database modernization initiatives. The regional expansion enables customers to process their migration workloads locally, reducing latency and supporting data residency requirements.

DMS Schema Conversion with GenAI automatically converts database schemas and code from Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Sybase to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition and Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL. By automating the conversion process, the service significantly reduces manual effort and accelerates migration project timelines, enabling database administrators and migration specialists to focus on strategic modernization activities rather than time-consuming manual code transformation.

DMS Schema Conversion is available at no additional charge and can be accessed through the AWS Management Console or AWS Command Line Interface (CLI). To learn more about supported database engines, conversion capabilities, and regional availability, visit the DMS Schema Conversion documentation  and cross-region inference documentation .
