Recommendation how to migrate Spring batch app to AWS

I have a spring batch app that is running once a day on a windows server (Windows scheduler). The app running 6 jobs that ingest data from txt files , csv files and also data from external databases in to my local one. I am quite satisfied with spring batch. It’s definitely doing the job and removing a lot of code.

We are now transferring our solution to AWS. I know that AWS has its own batch solution and per my understanding if I will want to use AWS batch then I will need to start the development from scratch. I am not sure what are the options that are valid for me.

I would like to hear if someone ever experience with migrating spring batch app to AWS. Is it preferable to start the development in AWS or there is an option to migrate spring batch app ?

Also, does AWS batch have API’s to handle files (like spring) or I will need to deal with the parsing and loading ?

Thank you

Not necessarily. A job definition in AWS is basically a docker image with some configuration parameters: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/create-job-definition.html. So if you create a docker image for your Spring Batch job, you should be able to run it as a Job in AWS without having to rewrite it.
