Migrating Amazon RDS MySQL 5.6 to Amazon Auroa MySQL 5.7 Through AWS DMS - migration

As the title of this topic is quite self-explanatory, The issue I am facing is that I am using "Ongoing Replication" as a replication type and everything is going well. Except for migrating the MySQL DB users, AWS DMS is unable to do that. Could you please guide us to a most effective solution with minimum downtime, and it would be great if there is no downtime. I have so far explored few options like creating an aurora replica from RDS MySQL DB (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-create-an-amazon-aurora-read-replica-from-a-mysql-db-instance/). Or Exporting the DB users from snapshot stored on the S3 bucket (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/AuroraMySQL.Migrating.ExtMySQL.html#AuroraMySQL.Migrating.ExtMySQL.S3).
Thank you so much in advance.

create an Aurora replica for RDS MySQL is the AWS suggested way for RDS to Aurora migration with minimal downtime: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/AuroraMySQL.Migrating.RDSMySQL.Replica.html
You don't need to use AWS DMS at all. The high level steps are:
Create a Aurora RR (MySQL 5.6) from RDS MySQL 5.6
Upgrade the Aurora RR to 5.7
Ensure Replica lag is zero from master to new Aurora 5.7 replica
Promote the new Aurora MySQL 5.7

Select from MySQL AWS into Azure SQL

I have a MySQL DB on AWS.
I want to run a few simple SQL statements that select data from MySQL and insert to Azure DB.
Something like
select *
into Azure_Table
from
MySQL_Table
I also want to schedule this on a daily basis.
How can I do it directly from Azure SQL without having to use Data Factory / SSIS
Thank you
You can use Data Ingestion in ADF.
You can select the source and sink. Then schedule as per your need.
Note: Since you have the Source as MySQL on AWS i.e. outside of Azure Cloud, you would have to setup Self-hosted integration runtime for the linked service at source. Follow official MS doc for Setting up a self-hosted integration runtime using UI.
You can Migrate Amazon RDS for MySQL to Azure Database for MySQL using MySQL Workbench.
You can refer to below official documentation where you can get step by step explanation:
Migrate Amazon for MySQL to Azure Database for MySQL using MySQL Workbench.
Workaround – There is no direct way to query third-party database from Azure. But, you can migrate it to Azure and then perform operations.

Can I setup hive metastore w/o hadoop on aws and use RDS as db

want to have central hive meta store to consume from databrick, spectrum etc ..
Is it possible to setup w/o installing hadoop
Yes, Hive metastore installation does not require Hadoop.
Querying data from the Hive metastore requires a Hive client (within Spark) and a Hadoop compatible filesystem (such as S3)
AWS Glue Data Catalog is the recommended system nowadays, not RDS

Does Amazon RDS support SQL Transaction Logs?

Does Amazon RDS (sql-server) support sql transaction logs? if so
How can i enable it through RDS interface?
How can i access it?
If you have automated snapshots turned on, then you can see it through the AWS RDS interface under DB Snapshots Automated. You can choose to do automated backups when setting up the DB. http://aws.amazon.com/rds/faqs/ under Automated Backups and Database Snapshots it talks more about this procedure.
What I don't know is how to enable automated backups after creating the db.

Local replica of RDS database

I've been doing some research for the past hour or so and I've been hearing some conflicting information regarding the replication of Amazon RDS databases. My database is pretty big, 15 tables with a total size of 4 GB. So, basically, is it possible for me to create a local replica of a remote RDS InnoDB or does Amazon not allow it?
you can create replicas of an RDS but only as another RDS. You can't do a replica on an EC2 or a local machine.
