Migration jobs represent data movement that Database Migration Service manages. They let you
combine source and destination connection profiles, define settings specific to
that particular migration process, monitor the progress, and safely finalize the
data movement process.
Migration jobs progress differently in different migration scenarios.
For more information about migration jobs statuses and actions,
see the following documentation relevant for your migration scenario.
