If migrating from MySQL to PostgreSQL database AWS, DMS (Database Migration Service) provides a reliable managed service with zero-downtime for continuous data replication.
Supports parallel queries making use of multiple CPUs to answer queries faster since version 9.6. Supports set returning functions generate_series. Supports VALUES lists to generate a ‘constant table’ that may be used in a query. Common Table Expressions (CTEs) and Window functions have been available since PostgreSQL 8.4, while only being added to MySQL in version 8.0. Supports advanced data types such as multi-dimensional arrays and user-defined types. PostgreSQL database provides several advantages, some of which are as follows: Both are implemented in C (C++ is also used for MySQL database) and both provide similar features, such as XML support, secondary indexes, concurrency, durability, and user-defined functions. That's it, your PostgreSQL backup is now ready.MySQL database and PostgreSQL database are both open source relational database management systems (RDBMS) ranked 2 nd and 4 th, respectively, according to. Pick the name of your backup (this is how it will be displayed in SimpleBackups interface) and where you want to store it. Select the type of your database, in this case " PostgreSQL". You can select a pre-defined schedule (daily, weekly, monthly) or a custom option allowing you to schedule it whenever you want to use CRON syntax.Įxample of CRON schedule for "20:00 every Tuesday" = 0 22 * * 2įinally, the "On demand" option won't schedule anything but will allow you to trigger the backup manually or using our API.ĭefine the backup retention, which is the number of backups you want to keep (kind of the history length of your backup if you prefer)Ĭhoose the database you need to backup (C) Select your schedule option (here we picked a daily schedule) How often should we make this backup? (B) Select the server on which your database is hosted (if you haven't yet configured any server check our " get your server configured" article first). Select " Database" (in this article we're creating a PostgreSQL backup only). Now it's time to head to the create backup page.įrom this screen you'll be able to configure what data you're backing up (PostgreSQL in this case), where you want it to be saved (in this case your AWS S3 Bucket), and how often you want this to be done.įYI this section will be the same, no matter what storage you pick.Īnd that's the beauty of it, if you want to change storage, just select another one from the list (Backblaze, AWS, or whatever you might prefer) and you'll be good to go. Final step: Create your PostgreSQL backup You'll be redirected to the list of storage where you'll find your newly connected storage.Ĥ. 
Give your storage a name (the bucket name is usually a good pick, but you can be creative) and click on "Save new storage".Bucket: Bucket name described in (step 1).Region: Bucket Region described in (step 1).In the storage provider list select "Amazon S3 Storage", and fill in the form with your AWS credentials and newly created bucket information.Log into SimpleBackups and head to the connect your storage page.

Follow this simple article on how to get your AWS S3 Credentials.ģ. In order to give access to your newly created bucket, you'll need to provide credentials to SimpleBackups. Your "Bucket" Region, in this case "US West - N.Your "Bucket" name, in this case "myacme-backups".Keep default options for (2) Configure options, (3) Set Permission, review and create your bucket. Go to your AWS S3 bucket list and create a new bucket Have a AWS S3 account (it can be empty, we'll cover how to get your S3 bucket created below).Make sure you have your server connected to your account (the one on which your PostgreSQL database is hosted).In this article, I'll go through the entire process of setting up your backup and store it on AWS S3 specifically.
With SimpleBackups, you can backup PostgreSQL database to any cloud storage provider. Automate PostgreSQL database backup directly to your AWS S3 storage.
