Scripts and Compatibility, Automation, Review, & Data Migration Tools
HAQM DocumentDB Compatibility Tool
If you want to migrate from MongoDB to HAQM DocumentDB and need to assess compatibility, this tool will help you assess the compatibility of a MongoDB application by using the application’s source code or MongoDB server profile logs. This tool produces a simple report of any unsupported operators and file names with line numbers.
HAQM DocumentDB Data Migration Utilities
If you want to perform a high-speed migration of existing data and ongoing changes from MongoDB to HAQM DocumentDB, this synchronization tool enables high-speed Change Data Capture (CDC) from a MongoDB source database to an HAQM DocumentDB target database.
HAQM DocumentDB Index Migration Tool
If you want to migrate indexes from an existing MongoDB application to HAQM DocumentDB, this index tool makes it easier to migrate only indexes (not data) between a source MongoDB deployment and a HAQM DocumentDB cluster.
HAQM DocumentDB Global Cluster Failover Automation Tool
If you want to perform an automated failover of an HAQM DocumentDB Global Cluster, this tool provides AWS Lambda functions to automate the failover process. The AWS Lambda functions address Disaster Recovery (DR) and Business Continuity (BCP) use cases.
MongoDB Oplog Review Tool
If you want to analyze the MongoDB Oplog to determine the number of insert/update/delete operations at the collection level, use the MongoDB Oplog review tool to connect to any instance in a MongoDB replica set to read the oplog and produce a log file.
