6.2 Importing Data

Use either of the following features to import data from an Amazon S3 bucket:

• Data import: Use the data import feature in the Console to import MySQL Shell dump and text files from Amazon S3 bucket. See Data Import Feature.
• Bulk ingest: Connect to the DB System and use the bulk ingest feature to import text files such as CSV and TSV from Amazon S3 bucket. This method is the fastest and most efficient in terms of computing and memory consumption. This method is suitable for importing large tables. See Bulk Ingest Feature, and Connecting to a DB System.
• Dump loading utility: Use the dump loading utility of MySQL Shell to import a MySQL Shell dump manually. See Importing Data Using the Dump Loading Utility.
