I have a MySQL server (with size around 3TB and more) that I need to migrate to aws. The main purpose of shifting to aws is to build API...

I don't see a lot on this. Most of the articles and references are to RDS, not away.

EC2 is really a VM, so this is a migration from RDS to...

It's on my list to get working.

Glad you liked the reasonable part, and I slowly see people having better setups for working, and at the same time, I see more people that have desks using their...
