Use cases

Migrating existing data

Migration Assistant for Amazon OpenSearch Service offers various options for migrating existing data, including detailed guidance on running a reindex-from-snapshot applicable across all supported migration routes, such as from Elasticsearch 5.6, 6.8, 7.10.2, or 7.17 to OpenSearch 2.19.

Near real-time migration of HTTP traffic between clusters

The solution offers you the option to capture data destined for a source cluster and store this data for reuse. A user can replay this data to a target cluster in near real-time to migrate as soon as possible, or replay at a later time.

Replay traffic to multiple targets

The solution allows you to capture traffic for replay through multiple instances or in sequential runs, facilitating the validation of diverse cluster workloads and configurations.

Precise simulation of your cluster workloads

The solution allows users to capture and replay traffic either simultaneously with multiple instances, or in separate sequential runs. This feature aids in validating different cluster workloads and configurations. By default, the Traffic Replayer preserves the original concurrency and request rate to accurately simulate production loads, ensuring a fair like-for-like comparison.

Validate target cluster results

The solution facilitates user comparisons of source and target traffic in terms of accuracy and performance. It captures metrics and logs for analysis, providing users with the necessary confidence to migrate their production traffic to a new target.
