Amazon Aurora Connector Overview
Amazon Aurora Connector enables you to securely read data from or write data to Amazon Aurora databases.
You can use Amazon Aurora objects as sources and targets in Data Synchronization tasks, mappings, and Mapping Configuration tasks. When you use Amazon Aurora Connector to write data, you can perform insert, update, upsert or delete operations. When you configure field mappings in a Data Synchronization task or Mapping Configuration task, you can create a lookup to an Amazon Aurora object.
Note: Amazon Aurora Connector does not support the unconnected lookup transformations.
Example
You work in the IT department of an international bank and are responsible for storing huge volumes of transaction files in a relational database. You want to store the data in Amazon Aurora database to avoid data loss if the relational database fails. You can use Amazon Aurora Connector to upload huge volumes of transactional files to Amazon Aurora from any location and at any time. You can back up data in Aurora for disaster recovery purposes and retrieve the data later.
