Migrate data from a self-managed Oracle database to a Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance - Data Transmission Service

This topic describes how to migrate data from a self-managed Oracle database to a Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance by using Data Transmission Service (DTS).

Prerequisites

The source self-managed Oracle database and the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance are created.
Note For more information about the supported versions of the source database and the destination instance, see Overview of data migration scenarios.
The self-managed Oracle database is running in ARCHIVELOG mode. Archived log files are accessible, and a suitable retention period is set for archived log files. For more information, see Managing Archived Redo Log Files.
Supplemental logging, including SUPPLEMENTAL_LOG_DATA_PK and SUPPLEMENTAL_LOG_DATA_UI, is enabled for the self-managed Oracle database. For more information, see Supplemental Logging.
The available storage space of the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance is larger than the total size of the data in the self-managed Oracle database.
In the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance, a topic is created to receive the migrated data. For more information, see Step 1: Create a topic.

Limits

Category	Description
Limits on the source database	The server to which the source database belongs must have sufficient outbound bandwidth. Otherwise, the data migration speed decreases. If the source database is an Oracle RAC database connected over Express Connect, you must specify a VIP for the database when you configure the source database information. If the source database is an Oracle RAC database connected over Express Connect, VPN Gateway, Smart Access Gateway, Database Gateway, or Cloud Enterprise Network (CEN), you can use a single VIP rather than a Single Client Access Name (SCAN) IP address when you configure the source database information. After you specify the VIP, node failover is not supported for the Oracle RAC database. Requirements for the objects to be migrated: The tables to be migrated must have PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraints, and all fields must be unique. Otherwise, the destination database may contain duplicate data records. If the version of your Oracle database is 12c or later, the names of the tables to be migrated cannot exceed 30 bytes in length. If you select tables as the objects to be migrated and you need to modify the tables in the destination database, such as renaming tables or columns, up to 1,000 tables can be migrated in a single data migration task. If you run a task to migrate more than 1,000 tables, a request error occurs. In this case, we recommend that you split the tables and configure multiple tasks to migrate the tables, or configure a task to migrate the entire database. If you want to migrate incremental data, you must make sure that the following requirements are met: The redo logging and archive logging must be enabled. If you perform only incremental data migration, the redo logs and archive logs of the source database must be stored for more than 24 hours. If you perform both full data migration and incremental data migration, the redo logs and archive logs of the source database must be stored for at least seven days. After full data migration is complete, you can set the retention period to more than 24 hours. Otherwise, DTS may fail to obtain the redo logs and archive logs and the task may fail. In extreme cases, data may be inconsistent or lost. Make sure that you set the retention period of redo logs and archive logs based on the preceding requirements. Otherwise, the service reliability and performance stated in the Service Level Agreement (SLA) of DTS may not be guaranteed. Limits on operations: During schema migration and full data migration, do not perform DDL operations to change the schemas of databases or tables. Otherwise, the data migration task fails. If you perform only full data migration, do not write data to the source database during data migration. Otherwise, data inconsistency may occur between the source and destination databases. To ensure data consistency, we recommend that you select schema migration, full data migration, and incremental data migration as the migration types. During data migration, do not update LONGTEXT fields. Otherwise, the data migration task fails.
Other limits	Before you migrate data, evaluate the impact of data migration on the performance of the source and destination databases. We recommend that you migrate data during off-peak hours. During full data migration, DTS uses the read and write resources of the source and destination databases. This may increase the loads on the database servers. During full data migration, concurrent INSERT operations cause fragmentation in the tables of the destination database. After full data migration is complete, the size of used tablespace of the destination database is larger than that of the source database. DTS attempts to resume data migration tasks that failed within the last seven days. Before you switch workloads to the destination database, stop or release the data migration task. You can also execute the `REVOKE` statement to revoke the write permissions from the accounts that are used by DTS to access the destination database. Otherwise, the data in the source database overwrites the data in the destination database after a failed task is resumed.

Billing

Migration type	Instance configuration fee	Internet traffic fee
Schema migration and full data migration	Free of charge.	Charged only when data is migrated from Alibaba Cloud over the Internet. For more information, see Billing overview.
Incremental data migration	Charged. For more information, see Billing overview.

Migration types

Migration type	Description
Schema migration	DTS migrates the schemas of the required objects from the source Oracle database to the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Note In this scenario, DTS does not support triggers. We recommend that you delete the triggers of the source database to prevent data inconsistency caused by triggers. For more information about, see Configure a data synchronization task for a source database that contains a trigger.
Full data migration	DTS migrates historical data of the required objects from the source Oracle database to the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Note During schema migration and full data migration, do not perform DDL operations on the objects to be migrated. Otherwise, the objects may fail to be migrated.
Incremental data migration	DTS retrieves redo log files from the source Oracle database. Then, DTS migrates incremental data from the source Oracle database to the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Incremental data migration allows you to ensure service continuity when you migrate data from a self-managed Oracle database.

SQL operations that can be incrementally migrated

Operation type	SQL statement
DML	INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE
DDL	CREATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE, DROP TABLE, RENAME TABLE, and TRUNCATE TABLE CREATE VIEW, ALTER VIEW, and DROP VIEW CREATE PROCEDURE, ALTER PROCEDURE, and DROP PROCEDURE CREATE FUNCTION, DROP FUNCTION, CREATE TRIGGER, and DROP TRIGGER CREATE INDEX and DROP INDEX

Before you begin

Log on to the self-managed Oracle database, create an account that you want to use to collect data, and then grant permissions to the account.

Note If you have created an account that is granted the permissions listed in the following table, you can skip this step.

Database	Schema migration	Full data migration	Incremental data migration
Source Oracle database	Permissions of the schema owner	Permissions of the schema owner	Database administrator (DBA)

To create a database account and grant permissions to the database account, perform the following operations:

Self-managed Oracle database: CREATE USER and GRANT.

Important

If you need to migrate incremental data from an Oracle database but the database administrator (DBA) permissions cannot be granted to the database account, you can enable archive logging and supplemental logging, and grant fine-grained permissions to the account.

Enable archive logging and supplemental logging.

Type	Procedure
Archive logging	Execute the following statements to enable archive logging: `shutdown immediate; startup mount; alter database archivelog; alter database open; archive log list;`
Supplemental logging	Enable supplemental logging at the database or table level based on your business requirements. Note You can enable database-level supplemental logging to ensure the stability of Data Transmission Service (DTS) tasks. You can enable table-level supplemental logging to reduce the disk usage of the source Oracle database. Enable database-level supplemental logging Execute the following statement to enable minimal supplemental logging: `alter database add supplemental log data;` Execute the following statement to enable primary key and unique key supplemental logging at the database level: `alter database add supplemental log data (primary key,unique index) columns;` Enable table-level supplemental logging Execute the following statement to enable minimal supplemental logging: `alter database add supplemental log data;` Enable table-level supplemental logging by using one of the following methods: Enable primary key supplemental logging at the table level `alter table table_name add supplemental log data (primary key) columns;` Enable table-level supplemental logging for all columns `alter table tb_name add supplemental log data (all) columns;`
Force logging	Execute the following statement to enable force logging: `alter database force logging;`

Grant fine-grained permissions to an Oracle database account.

Procedure

Go to the Data Migration page of the new DTS console.
Note You can also log on to the Data Management (DMS) console. In the top navigation bar, click DTS. Then, in the left-side navigation pane, choose DTS (DTS) > Data Migration.
In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region in which the data migration instance resides.

Click Create Task. On the page that appears, configure the source and destination databases.

Warning After you select the source and destination instances, we recommend that you read the limits displayed at the top of the page. This helps ensure that the task properly runs or prevent data inconsistency.

Section	Parameter	Description
N/A	Task Name	The name of the task. DTS automatically generates a task name. We recommend that you specify an informative name to identify the task. You do not need to specify a unique task name.
Source Database	Select an existing DMS database instance	The database instance that you want to use. You can choose whether to use an existing instance based on your business requirements. If you use an existing instance, DTS automatically applies the parameter settings of the source database. If you do not use an existing instance, you must configure the parameters for the database.
	Database Type	The type of the source database. Select Oracle.
	Access Method	The access method of the source database. Select the access method based on the location in which the source database is deployed. In this example, Self-managed Database on ECS is selected. Note If your source database is a self-managed database, you must deploy the network environment for the database. For more information, see Preparation overview.
	Instance Region	The region in which the source Oracle database resides.
	ECS Instance ID	The ID of the Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance that hosts the self-managed Oracle database.
	Port Number	The service port number of the self-managed Oracle database. Default value: 1521.
	Oracle Type	The architecture of the source Oracle database. If you select Non-RAC Instance, you must specify the SID parameter. If you select RAC or PDB Instance, you must specify the Service Name parameter. In this example, Non-RAC Instance is selected.
	Database Account	The account of the source Oracle database. For more information about the permissions that are required for the account, see Before you begin.
	Database Password	The password of the database account.
Destination Database	Select an existing DMS database instance	The database instance that you want to use. You can choose whether to use an existing instance based on your business requirements. If you use an existing instance, DTS automatically applies the parameter settings of the instance. If you do not use an existing instance, you must configure the parameters for the database.
	Database Type	The type of the destination database. Select Kafka.
	Access Method	The access method of destination database. Select Express Connect, VPN Gateway, or Smart Access Gateway. Note You cannot select Message Queue for Apache Kafka as the access method. You can use Message Queue for Apache Kafka as a self-managed Kafka database to configure data migration.
	Instance Region	The region in which the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance resides.
	Connected VPC	The ID of the virtual private cloud (VPC) to which the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance belongs. To obtain the VPC ID, perform the following operations: Log on to the Message Queue for Apache Kafka console and go to the Instance Details page of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. In the Configuration Information section of the Instance Information tab, view the VPC ID.
	IP address	The IP address that is included in the Default Endpoint parameter of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Note To obtain an IP address, perform the following operations: Log on to the Message Queue for Apache Kafka console and go to the Instance Details page of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. In the Endpoint Information section of the Instance Information tab, obtain an IP address from the Default Endpoint parameter.
	Port Number	The service port number of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Default value: 9092.
	Database Account	The database account of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. Note If the instance type of the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance is VPC Instance, you do not need to specify the Database Account and Database Password parameters.
	Database Password	The password of the database account.
	Kafka Version	The version of the destination Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance.
	Encryption	Specify whether to encrypt the connection. Select Non-encrypted or SCRAM-SHA-256 based on your business and security requirements.
	Topic	Select a topic from the drop-down list.
	Topic That Stores DDL Information	Select a topic from the drop-down list. The topic is used to store the DDL information. If you do not set this parameter, the DDL information is stored in the topic that is specified by the Topic parameter.
	Use Kafka Schema Registry	Specifies whether to use Kafka Schema Registry, which provides a serving layer for your metadata. It provides a RESTful API for storing and retrieving your Avro schemas. Valid values: No: does not use Kafka Schema Registry. Yes: uses Kafka Schema Registry. In this case, you must enter the URL or IP address that is registered in Kafka Schema Registry for your Avro schemas.

If a whitelist is configured for your self-managed database, you must add the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the whitelist. Then, click Test Connectivity and Proceed.
Warning If the CIDR blocks of DTS servers are automatically or manually added to the whitelist of a database or an instance, or to the security group rules of an ECS instance, security risks may arise. Therefore, before you use DTS to migrate data, you must understand and acknowledge the potential risks and take preventive measures, including but not limited to the following measures: enhance the security of your username and password, limit the ports that are exposed, authenticate API calls, regularly check the whitelist or ECS security group rules and forbid unauthorized CIDR blocks, or connect the database to DTS by using Express Connect, VPN Gateway, or Smart Access Gateway.

Configure objects to migrate and advanced settings.

Basic Settings

Parameter or setting	Description
Migration Type	To perform only full data migration, select Schema Migration and Full Data Migration. To ensure service continuity during data migration, select Schema Migration, Full Data Migration, and Incremental Data Migration. Note If Incremental Data Migration is not selected, we recommend that you do not write data to the source instance during data migration. This ensures data consistency between the source and destination instances.
Processing Mode of Conflicting Tables	Precheck and Report Errors: checks whether the destination database contains tables that have the same names as tables in the source database. If the source and destination databases do not contain identical table names, the precheck is passed. Otherwise, an error is returned during the precheck and the data migration task cannot be started. Note You can use the object name mapping feature to rename the tables that are migrated to the destination database. You can use this feature if the source and destination databases contain tables that have identical names and the tables in the destination database cannot be deleted or renamed. For more information, see Map object names. Ignore Errors and Proceed: skips the precheck for identical table names in the source and destination databases. Warning If you select Ignore Errors and Proceed, data inconsistency may occur, and your business may be exposed to potential risks. If the source and destination databases have the same schema, DTS does not migrate data records that have the same primary keys as data records in the destination database. If the source and destination databases have different schemas, only some columns are migrated or the data migration task fails. Proceed with caution.
Data Format in Kafka	The format in which data is stored in the Message Queue for Apache Kafka instance. If you select DTS Avro, data is parsed based on the schema definition of DTS Avro. For more information about the schema definition, visit GitHub. If you select SharePlex JSON, data is stored in the SharePlex JSON format. For more information, see Shareplex Json.
Policy for Shipping Data to Kafka Partitions	Select a migration policy based on your business requirements. For more information, see Specify the policy for migrating data to Kafka partitions.
Select Objects	Select one or more objects from the Source Objects section and click the icon to add the objects to the Selected Objects section.
Rename Databases and Tables	To rename an object that you want to migrate to the destination instance, right-click the object in the Selected Objects section. For more information, see Map the name of a single object. To rename multiple objects at a time, click in the upper-right corner of the Selected Objects section. For more information, see Map multiple object names at a time. Note If you use the object name mapping feature to rename an object, other objects that are dependent on the object may fail to be migrated.
Filter data	You can specify WHERE conditions to filter data. For more information, see Use SQL conditions to filter data.
Select the SQL operations to be incrementally migrated	In the Selected Objects section, right-click an object. In the dialog box that appears, select the DML operations that you want to incrementally migrate. For more information, see SQL operations that can be incrementally migrated.

Advanced Settings

Parameter	Description
Set Alerts	Specifies whether to set alerts for the data migration task. If the task fails or the migration latency exceeds the threshold, the alert contacts will receive notifications. Valid values: No: does not set alerts. Yes: sets alerts. If you select Yes, you must also set the alert threshold and alert contacts. For more information, see Configure monitoring and alerting when you create a DTS task.
Capitalization of Object Names in Destination Instance	The capitalization of database names, table names, and column names in the destination instance. By default, DTS default policy is selected. You can select other options to ensure that the capitalization of object names is consistent with the default capitalization of object names in the source or destination database. For more information, see Specify the capitalization of object names in the destination instance.
Retry Time for Failed Connections	The retry time range for failed connections. If the source or destination database fails to be connected after the data migration task is started, DTS immediately retries a connection within the time range. Valid values: 10 to 1440. Unit: minutes. Default value: 720. We recommend that you set the parameter to a value greater than 30. If DTS reconnects to the source and destination databases within the specified time range, DTS resumes the data migration task. Otherwise, the data migration task fails. Note If you set different retry time ranges for multiple data migration tasks that share the same source or destination database, the value that is set later takes precedence. If DTS retries a connection, you are charged for the operation of the DTS instance. We recommend that you specify the retry time based on your business needs and release the DTS instance at your earliest opportunity after the source and destination instances are released.

In the lower part of the page, click Next: Save Task Settings and Precheck.
Note
- Before you can start the data migration task, DTS performs a precheck. You can start the data migration task only after the task passes the precheck.
- If the task fails to pass the precheck, click View Details next to each failed item. After you troubleshoot the issues based on the causes, run a precheck again.
- If an alert is triggered for an item during the precheck:
  If an alert item cannot be ignored, click View Details next to the failed item and troubleshoot the issues. Then, run a precheck again.
  If an alert item can be ignored, click Confirm Alert Details. In the View Details dialog box, click Ignore. In the message that appears, click OK. Then, click Precheck Again to run a precheck again. If you ignore the alert item, data inconsistency may occur, and your business may be exposed to potential risks.
Wait until the Success Rate value becomes 100%. Then, click Next: Purchase Instance.

On the Purchase Instance page, specify the Instance Class parameter for the data migration instance. The following table describes the parameter.

Section	Parameter	Description
Parameters	Instance Class	DTS provides several instance classes that vary in the migration speed. You can select an instance class based on your business scenario. For more information, see Specifications of data migration instances.

Read and select the check box to agree to Data Transmission Service (Pay-as-you-go) Service Terms.
Click Buy and Start to start the data migration task. You can view the progress of the task in the task list.
