I need to move a database with a Django schema from Postgres to MySQL, running on Amazon's RDS. I can re-generate the tables using manage.py, but I'm still looking for a way to migrate over all of the raw data. Does anyone know a clean way of moving it over? Are there any gotchas to watch out for with Amazon's RDS?

dumpdata and loaddata commands are available in Django too and it will be in manage.py. This would be the process:

  • use syncdb in MySQL to prepare the tables
  • use dumpdata from PostgreSQL
  • Into the new MySQL instance, do loaddata from the previous command
