In this post, you learn how to build a generative AI–powered migration assistant that helps automate portions of the last mile of code conversion. Using Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4.6 on Amazon Bedrock, the Strands Agents framework, and the AWS Knowledge MCP Server, you can automate the conversion and validation of PL/SQL objects against Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition. The assistant reads the AWS DMS SC assessment CSV, fetches live PL/SQL source from Oracle, converts each object, deploys the result to Aurora PostgreSQL through AWS Lambda, and runs automated tests, in a single pipeline.

Today, we announce the Amazon Aurora MySQL power for Kiro. The power connects Kiro’s AI agent to Aurora MySQL and pairs live database access with curated best-practice guidance. You describe what you need in natural language. The agent generates the API calls, SQL, and configuration for you to review and run. In this post, we walk through how the power guides a production migration from Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for MySQL 8.0 to Aurora MySQL through four phases: assessment, replica creation, promotion, and post-cutover validation.

Amazon receives millions of visits every day, and earning each customer’s trust visit after visit is the foundation that the store is built on. A meaningful part of that trust comes down to whether the recommendations we surface feel relevant and whether they reflect what the customer actually cares about in the moment. In this post, we describe an architecture that makes it achievable. Amazon SageMaker hosts a sentence transformer model on a managed endpoint and turns customer query text into dense semantic vectors. Valkey is an open source, in-memory data store with built-in vector search. It’s available on AWS through Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon MemoryDB. In our architecture, we use Amazon-managed Valkey to store the product catalog as a vector index.

In this post, we show how to build an Amazon Aurora DSQL database agent that other AI agents can discover and query through natural language using the A2A protocol. You’ll walk through how to build and deploy this using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore capabilities, including AgentCore Runtime for hosting, AgentCore Gateway for tool access via MCP, and the Strands Agents SDK for agent logic.

In this post, we walk through building an agent that investigates blocking and deadlocks on Amazon RDS for SQL Server — two issues that directly impact application performance, cause transaction failures, and lead to user-facing timeouts. Using the Strands Agents framework, we convert the T-SQL queries DBAs already use for these investigations into agent tools, combine them into a single agent, and deploy it to AgentCore Runtime.

In this post, we walk through the steps to set up the custom migration assistant agent and migrate a PostgreSQL database to Aurora DSQL. We demonstrate how to use natural language prompts to analyze database schemas, generate compatibility reports, apply converted schemas, and manage data replication through AWS DMS. As of this writing, AWS DMS does not support Aurora DSQL as target endpoint. To address this, our solution uses Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and AWS Lambda functions as a bridge to load data into Aurora DSQL.

In this post, you learn how to implement conversational operations for Oracle E-Business Suite (Oracle EBS) on AWS by connecting Kiro CLI with your monitoring infrastructure through the MCP. We walk through the technical architecture that enables natural language queries to retrieve CloudWatch metrics, analyze logs, and execute operational commands.

In this post, we demonstrate how to efficiently migrate relational-style data from NoSQL to Aurora DSQL, using Kiro CLI as our generative AI tool to optimize schema design and streamline the migration process.

In this post, we show how you can use graph algorithms to analyze the results of AWS Entity Resolution and related transactions for the CNP use case. We use several AWS services, including Neptune Analytics, AWS Entity Resolution, Amazon SageMaker notebooks, and Amazon S3.

In this post, we talk about the benefits of caching in generative AI applications. We also elaborated on a few implementation strategies that can help you create and maintain an effective cache for your application.
