Combinations

Within DMS you can have multiple combinations of resources depending on your use case. For example (not an exhaustive list of possible combinations):

Simple

• One source endpoint
• One target/destination endpoint
• One replication task
• Two event subscriptions
  • Replication instance event subscription
  • Replication task event subscriptions

Multiple endpoints, multiple tasks

• Two source endpoints
• Three target/destination endpoints
• Three replication tasks (source1 -> target1, source2 -> target2, source1 -> targe3)
• Four event subscriptions
  • Replication instance event subscription
  • Replication task event subscription for each task listed above

In order to accommodate a flexible, multi-resource combinatorial module, keys and maps are used for cross-referencing resources created within the module.

Given the following example (not complete, only showing the relevant attributes):

module "database_migration_service" {
  source  = "terraform-aws-modules/dms/aws"
  version = "~> 2.0"

  # This value is used when subscribing to instance event notifications
  repl_instance_id = "readme-example"

  endpoints = {
    # These keys are used to map endpoints within task definitions by this key `source1`
    source1 = {
      endpoint_type = "source"
      ...
    }

    destination1 = {
      endpoint_type = "target"
      ...
    }

    destination2 = {
      endpoint_type = "target"
      ...
    }
  }

To create replication tasks, you simply reference the relevant keys from the endpoints map in the source_endpoint_key/target_endpoint_key fields:

  ...

  replication_tasks = {
    src1_dest1 = {
      ...
      source_endpoint_key = "source1"
      target_endpoint_key = "destination1"
    }
    src1_dest2 = {
      ...
      source_endpoint_key = "source1"
      target_endpoint_key = "destination2"
    }
  }

  ...

Continuing the same lookup pattern, to create event subscriptions, you simply reference the replication instance ID in the instance_event_subscription_keys field when subscribing to instance notifications, or the replication_tasks keys in the task_event_subscription_keys to subscribe to the tasks notifications (all or only select keys for select tasks):

  ...

  event_subscriptions = {
    instance = {
      instance_event_subscription_keys = ["readme-example"]
      ...
    }
    task = {
      task_event_subscription_keys = ["src1_dest1", "src1_dest2]
      ...
    }
  }

  ...

Tasks

Tasks are the "jobs" that perform the necessary actions of migrating from source to target, including any transformations and/or mappings of the data in transit. Tasks are largely controlled by task settings that are defined in a JSON document.

Example task settings JSON document:
