# DMS Schema Conversion
## Overview
This skill handles the full DMS Schema Conversion lifecycle — from first-time setup to running conversions on an existing project.
> The AWS MCP server is recommended for streamlined execution, audit logging, and observability. When the MCP server is not available, all operations can be performed via AWS CLI directly.
**Key documentation:**
- [Selection rules in DMS Schema Conversion](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dms/latest/userguide/sc-selection-rules.html) — scoping operations to specific objects
- [Transformation rules in DMS Schema Conversion](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dms/latest/userguide/sc-transformation-rules.html) — renaming schemas, tables, columns during conversion
**Global constraint:** You MUST fetch and read any linked documentation before acting on it — do NOT rely on memory for any referenced material (selection rules, transformation rules, troubleshooting guides, network configuration, etc.). Documentation contains vendor-specific details that change between engines and API versions.
