Hi i want to shift my self hosted Parse server to Amazon SNS and all the guides i have found online only show options to export data from parse.com dashboard and not self hosted parse / parse-dashboard, for example the following link:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/migrating-from-parse-push-to-amazon-sns/

My self hosted parse setup is using mongodb on a digitalocean droplet. Is there anyway i can export this mongodb to Amazon SNS without losing any data?

Part of being on Parse-Server is that you're now in charge of managing your database, which it seems you've delegated to digital ocean. Do they host through mLab? I haven't used them, but I know that's what Heroku does.

If you have access to your database directly, look into this documentation: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2017/04/aws-database-migration-service-adds-support-for-mongodb-and-amazon-dynamodb/

Otherwise, you may need to contact digital ocean and have them help migrate your data. I'd be shocked if they don't hand you the keys to their upcharged DB though.
