TimestreamSettings - AWS Database Migration Service

TimestreamSettings

Provides information that defines an Amazon Timestream endpoint.

Contents

DatabaseName

Database name for the endpoint.

Type: String

Required: Yes

MagneticDuration

Set this attribute to specify the default magnetic duration applied to the Amazon Timestream tables in days. This is the number of days that records remain in magnetic store before being discarded. For more information, see Storage in the Amazon Timestream Developer Guide.

Type: Integer

Required: Yes

MemoryDuration

Set this attribute to specify the length of time to store all of the tables in memory that are migrated into Amazon Timestream from the source database. Time is measured in units of hours. When Timestream data comes in, it first resides in memory for the specified duration, which allows quick access to it.

Type: Integer

Required: Yes

CdcInsertsAndUpdates

Set this attribute to true to specify that AWS DMS only applies inserts and updates, and not deletes. Amazon Timestream does not allow deleting records, so if this value is false, AWS DMS nulls out the corresponding record in the Timestream database rather than deleting it.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

EnableMagneticStoreWrites

Set this attribute to true to enable memory store writes. When this value is false, AWS DMS does not write records that are older in days than the value specified in MagneticDuration, because Amazon Timestream does not allow memory writes by default. For more information, see Storage in the Amazon Timestream Developer Guide.

Type: Boolean

Required: No
