Table: aws_dms_replication_instance - Query AWS Database Migration Service Replication Instances using SQL

The AWS Database Migration Service Replication Instances are fully managed, serverless instances that enable the migration of data from one type of database to another. They facilitate homogeneous or heterogeneous migrations and can handle continuous data replication with high availability and consolidated auditing. This service significantly simplifies the process of migrating existing data to AWS in a secure and efficient manner.

Table Usage Guide

The aws_dms_replication_instance table in Steampipe provides you with information about each replication instance in an AWS Database Migration Service. This table allows you, as a database administrator, to query replication-specific details, including engine version, instance class, allocated storage, and associated metadata. You can utilize this table to gather insights on replication instances, such as their current state, multi-AZ mode, publicly accessible status, and more. The schema outlines the various attributes of the replication instance, including the replication instance ARN, replication instance identifier, availability zone, and associated tags for you.

Examples

Basic info

Explore which replication instances in your AWS Database Migration Service have public accessibility. This can help identify potential security risks and ensure that your data is properly protected.

select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
kms_key_id,
publicly_accessible,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance;
select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
kms_key_id,
publicly_accessible,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance;

List replication instances with auto minor version upgrades disabled

Determine the areas in which replication instances have automatic minor version upgrades turned off. This is useful for identifying potential security risks or outdated systems that may require manual updates.

select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
auto_minor_version_upgrade,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
not auto_minor_version_upgrade;
select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
auto_minor_version_upgrade,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
auto_minor_version_upgrade = 0;

List replication instances provisioned with undesired (for example, dms.r5.16xlarge and dms.r5.24xlarge are not desired) instance classes

Determine the areas in which replication instances are provisioned with instance classes that are not preferred, such as dms.r5.16xlarge and dms.r5.24xlarge. This enables you to identify and rectify instances that may not meet your specific requirements or standards.

select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
replication_instance_class,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
replication_instance_class not in ('dms.r5.16xlarge', 'dms.r5.24xlarge');
select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
engine_version,
instance_create_time,
replication_instance_class,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
replication_instance_class not in ('dms.r5.16xlarge', 'dms.r5.24xlarge');

List publicly accessible replication instances

Determine the areas in which replication instances are publicly accessible. This can help enhance security by identifying potential vulnerabilities in your system.

select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
publicly_accessible,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
publicly_accessible;
select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
publicly_accessible,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
publicly_accessible = 1;

List replication instances not using multi-AZ deployment configurations

Identify instances where the replication process is not utilizing multi-AZ deployment configurations. This query is beneficial for pinpointing potential areas of vulnerability in your system, as it highlights where redundancies may not be in place to prevent data loss in the event of an AZ outage.

select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
publicly_accessible,
multi_az,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
not multi_az;
select
replication_instance_identifier,
arn,
publicly_accessible,
multi_az,
region
from
aws_dms_replication_instance
where
multi_az = 0;

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- aws

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_aws --config '<your_config>' aws_dms_replication_instance
