System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Migrating from Aurora MySQL to TiDB can be complex due to compatibility gaps, DDL transformation, and data-transfer challenges. This skill provides a structured, end-to-end workflow to assess TiDB compatibility, convert MySQL schemas for TiDB, load data, and validate results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Assess compatibility: analyze a source Aurora MySQL schema to identify blockers, required changes, and readiness for TiDB.
  • Convert schemas: generate TiDB-compatible DDL with proper data types, collations, and index handling.
  • Load and validate: plan data-transfer strategies and verify row counts and schema parity against the source.
  • Use Case: A team migrating an Aurora data warehouse to TiDB Cloud can run this skill to ensure a smooth transition with cost awareness.

Quick Start

Run the aurora-to-tidb migration skill against your Aurora MySQL source and TiDB target to begin the end-to-end migration workflow.
