Amazon RDSRelational Database Service

Amazon RDS

Quick introduction

Relational Database Service

Introducing Amazon RDS

Amazon RDS is a fully managed relational database service.

Simple to deploy

Easy to scale

ReliableCost e!ective

i

Choice of database engines

MySQL

Oracle

Microsoft SQL Server

Introducing Amazon RDSi

Data snapshots

Automatic

Point in time recovery

Faster time to recover


Getting started

Via the AWS Management console

Command line tools

SDKs and API calls


Three ways to remove the “muck”

RDS is optimized for productivity: most admin tasks only take a few clicks.

Faster time to delivery

Up and running in minutes

Free up time for adding business value

Productivity

Virtually all common MySQL databasefeatures are still available

Productivityl

Multiple databases per instance

Standard user accounts

Connect and query using common MySQL tools & drivers

Tune engine parameters

Import export data using standard MySQL tools (mysqldump)

Diagnostics

Native MySQL replication

SSL for encryption over the wire

Monitor metrics

Shell, super user or direct file system access

Productivity

Painless patching

Control maintenance window times

Automatic upgrades for minor versions of MySQL

Major upgrades need to be initiated

l

Productivity

CloudWatch Monitoring

Included on all RDS databases

l

Binary log usage, CPU, connections, memory, network

IOPS, latency and throughput for reads and writes

Productivity

Metric alarms

Set custom alarms on all metrics

l

Send email, trigger programmatic response

Example: CPU utilization over 90% for 10 minutes

Productivity

One click. High availability.

Automated deployment across multiple AZs

l

Master and standby are kept in sync

Zero admin overhead

Productivity

Automatic fail-over

Instance or AZ failure triggers fail-over to standby

l

Updates are intact with synchronous writes

Standby promoted to master. New standby.Additional data durability relative to single AZ deployment

Case study

Intuit Live Community

Faster release cycles for more agility

Millions of users, seasonal peaks

Hands free recovery with Amazon RDS

Moved from monthly to weekly releases

M

Run on EC2, RDS and CloudFormation. Multi-AZ.

Performance

Scalable database storage

5Gb to 1Tb of attached storage

Scale on demand

Scale incrementally, but only as much as you need

T

Performance

Storage is striped

Data striped across multiple volumes

Higher allocated storage stripes across more volumes

Higher throughput with larger instance types

T

Performance

Vertical resource scaling

Add additional compute capacity

Increase IO with larger instances

Add memory and CPU

T

Performance

Read Replicas

Scale beyond capacity constraints of a single instance

Asynchronous replication to replicas

Perfect for read-heavy loads and reporting

T

Performance

Amazon ElastiCache

In-memory cache service

Ideal front end to RDS for read-heavy applications

Low latency

T

Performance

Replicas vs Caches

Caches are good for low latency access over a limited dataset

Replicas provide relatively less performance over a substantially larger dataset

T

Case study

Flipboard

6 months to deploy a real time, social magazine

5 million users, 2 billion page flips per month

Better response time (milliseconds) and uptime

Complex queries on use and relevance data

M

Run on EC2, RDS and ElastiCache. Multi-AZ.

Case study

Gumi

Outgrew existing IT environment

Elasticity to respond to peaks; reduce costs.

10 million visitors a day

Reduced time to market through accelerated development

Data Protection

Automatic snapshots

Daily database backups

Transaction log backups every 5 minutes

Everything up to final 5 minutes can be recovered

8

Automated backups

Automated point-in-time backups

1 day retention (extendable to 35 days)

On by default. No additional charge.

8Data Protection

DB Security groups

DB instances are isolated by default

Control access by source IP address or EC2 security group

Specify IP range: 0.0.0.0/0 discouraged!

8Data Protection

Data Protection

Use a crash recoverable database engine

Use InnoDB (the default!)

Optimized for crash recovery and data durability

MyISAM can result in lost or corrupt data on restoreInnoDB for point in time and snapshot restoration

8

Avoid in-memory or temporary tables

Not flushed to disk

Point in time recovery plays back operations

Operations need to be on committed to disk

8Data Protection

RDS in the Virtual Private Cloud

Virtual network, bring your own IP addresses

Complete virtual network control: public, private subnets

Includes Multi-AZ (for MySQL and Oracle)

8Data Protection

Encryption via SSL

RDS generates SSL certificates for each DB instance

Encryption of data between client and DB instance

Case study

Samsung Smarthub

Needed to reduce IT costs and increase flexibility

AWS and Amazon RDS authenticate every request

Saved 34M in hardware and maintenance expenses

85% less than running on-premise
