A CloudFormation template is provided that automates provisioning of all prerequisites — VPC configuration, IAM roles, S3 bucket, Secrets Manager secrets, KMS key, and DMS-specific resources (data providers, instance profile, migration project) — in under 10 minutes. DMS SC also integrates generative AI via Amazon Bedrock to handle complex procedural code like PL/SQL stored procedures, triggers, and packages, rewriting them into target-compatible syntax (PL/pgSQL or MySQL). The post walks through each CloudFormation parameter including source/target database configuration, network settings (VPC vs. public mode), and KMS encryption options. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
