Sync DynamoDB to Redis with Apache SeaTunnel

DEV Community •

Integrating Amazon DynamoDB with Redis for high-speed caching and real-time analytics can be a challenge, especially when Redis Data Integration (RDI) doesn't support DynamoDB. Apache SeaTunnel, an open-source data integration platform, provides a powerful, code-free solution. SeaTunnel enables seamless data synchronization between over 100 sources, including DynamoDB, and sinks like Redis.

You can run it in two modes: standalone for one-off migrations using a simple Docker command and a configuration file, or cluster mode for an always-on, scalable infrastructure managed via a REST API. This approach eliminates the need for complex custom code or costly ETL tools, offering fault-tolerant, distributed data pipelines. By defining source and sink connectors in a config file, developers can efficiently move data from a DynamoDB table to Redis hashes, enabling powerful applications like recommendation engines and vector search.
