Thanks for all the info. Is your On Amazon DB on RDS? We use Postgres so it might be that we couldn't do the same. Presently I run the DB on EC2 instance(s) but one day I'm sure I'll switch to RDS. Just trying to understand what an exit strategy might look like in the future.

Yes we are running a mySQL 5.6 Database on RDS. If the Database you want to migrate/replicate from is running on Amazon you should be able to make it a replication source. I saw nothing that stated the database HAD to be on RDS. You use the servers address to setup the endpoints. And provide a database username and password to connect with so it should be doable.
