Have a look at the 'koha-migrate' script - I originally wrote it to migrate several Koha MariaDB databases running on a Ubuntu (20.04LTS) server to Amazon Aurora MySQL on AWS but it should work for other use-cases. There are several other scripts there you might find useful as well. As always, test them in a dev environment before running them on your production server :)
