By default, when a snapshot task includes multiple tables, ape-dts migrates tables one at a time in order, sorted by database name first, then table name.
If you have sufficient resources (memory, CPU), you can enable parallel table migration to accelerate.
- With the following configuration, ape-dts will run up to 4 table workers at a time. When any table completes, it will pick the next remaining table, keeping up to 4 tables in progress.
[extractor]
parallel_type=table
parallel_size=4
parallel_type=table means snapshot concurrency is allocated across tables. parallel_type=chunk means concurrency is allocated within a single table by chunk splitting. In chunk mode, [extractor].batch_size is also the target chunk size, and the extractor tries to keep each chunk close to that row count. In both modes, parallel_size is the effective snapshot concurrency knob.
Deprecated config: [runtime] tb_parallel_size is deprecated and should not be used in new configs. It is kept only for backward compatibility, and only as a fallback when [extractor] parallel_size is not set.
Legacy example:
[runtime]
tb_parallel_size=4- In snapshot tasks,
[extractor].parallel_sizecontrols source-side snapshot extraction concurrency. [parallelizer].parallel_sizecontrols downstream sink parallelism after data has been extracted.
[parallelizer]
parallel_type=snapshot
parallel_size=8
