Retrospective edition: 2026-07-10. Source published: 2026-07-10. Added to this archive: 2026-11-03. This briefing was prepared later from the linked announcement; it was not published on this website on the historical edition date.

AWS Database Migration Service Schema Conversion added AI agent automation capabilities via the AWS MCP Server. Compatible AI coding assistants like Kiro, Claude Code, and Cursor can autonomously create migration projects, browse source metadata, convert schemas, generate assessment reports, and export results using natural language commands. This integration streamlines migration workflows within developer IDEs without manual intervention.

The DMS Schema Conversion skill provides predefined procedures and API patterns to guide agents, reducing errors and iterative trial loops compared to general AI generation. These capabilities also extend to converting complex code objects such as stored procedures and triggers. AI automation is supported across all source-target engine pairs with no extra charge. While promising efficiency gains, independent user experiences or performance metrics remain unpublished.
