Migrate your AWS RDS/Aurora PostgreSQL database to an HM-managed database Innovation Release

These are all the steps you need to perform a migration from an AWS RDS for PostgreSQL or Aurora PostgreSQL database to a database managed by Hybrid Manager (HM).

1. Create a destination database in HM.

Migrate your schema

Handle incompatibilities and transfer your schemas.

1. Handle constraints for schema migration.

2. Migrate schemas.

Migrate your data
