In Aurora replication, you have separate reader and writer endpoints however because the cluster shares the underlying storage layer, `gh-ost` will detect it is running on the master. This becomes an issue when you wish to use [migrate/test on replica][migrate_test_on_replica_docs] because you won't be able to use a single cluster in the same way you would with MySQL RDS.
To work around this, you can follow along the [AWS replication between clusters documentation][aws_replication_docs] for Aurora with one small caveat. For the "Create a Snapshot of Your Replication Master" step, the binlog position is not available in the AWS console. You will need to issue the SQL query `SHOW SLAVE STATUS` or `aws rds describe-events` API call to get the correct position.
