High availability even for database beginners

Bewertet am 18.7.2022

I am using it as a MySQL server. With a managed database server, almost everything can be configured by just operating the configuration screen, so it is recommended that even members with little knowledge of MySQL can create a high availability database infrastructure, such as creating a Master-Slave configuration. It was possible to significantly reduce the man-hours required to install and configure the DB supports in EC2 and the upgrade procedure for maintenance, and dedicate the man-hours to other design and construction work. Including a BD license, it has freed us from license management. In addition, by not needing a physical space, we are freed from the whole flow of purchasing it.

Vorteile

It is a pay-per-use system where you are only charged for the number of transactions that occur. Still, there is also a subscription system called Reserved Instances (RI), so instances that generate transactions frequently use this system to reduce costs significantly. There are three types to choose from: one-year prepayment, one-year prepayment, monthly payment, and no prepayment, depending on the kind of discount. Pay-per-use is basically cheaper for cases where transactions do not occur frequently, depending on the situation, so you can optimize the charge by using different payment methods depending on the application.

Nachteile

I would like you to provide a concrete fault test solution. If you do not have a high level of knowledge about RDS, you cannot be relieved that you cannot perform useful failure tests assuming a failure occurs.

Warum Amazon RDS gewählt wurde

I migrated to RDS from a database server with MySQL installed on a LINUX server. When creating a master-slave configuration, it was necessary to configure MySQL for two servers, but with the switch to RDS, only a few clicks are needed. In addition, the Availability Zone automatically becomes redundant, which makes it easier to manage.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Amazon RDS

It is necessary to stop updating the specifications, but it is easy and simple to update.

High quality, bulletproof managed database service

Bewertet am 20.4.2022

We use Amazon RDS to manage our key production/transactional databases for our customer-facing...

We use Amazon RDS to manage our key production/transactional databases for our customer-facing applications as well as our development environment, internal ERP, etc.

We definitely gain value and efficiency from not having to deal with the management of yet another server - and its operating system, patches, uptime, etc. - it is a real boon to simply have a database-as-a-service that we spin up, connect to, and work with, letting AWS deal with all the management.

Vorteile

AWS RDS allows us to deploy databases easily and efficiently with great resilience, scalability, and security - but without having to deal with managing a server. RDS makes it easy to spin up a new database, have multi-availability zone replicas, back it up, and do many other things. It's also dead easy to upgrade software versions - simply let AWS look after it.

Nachteile

Being a managed database service there are restrictions; for instance, with SQL Server you don't have the sysadmin role and you can't set any trace flag you want. You can adjust a number of parameters in the RDS console but only those which AWS have explicitly added support for. There are other caveats and restrictions for other DBMS products too.

Another thing I don't like is when you change your instance size it takes a long time - but at least there's no downtime. Also, tooling is restricted.

A lot of great tools to dig into performance and query tracing won't work with the AWS caveats so you have to use the AWS RDS console and logs and it can be more tedious to really drill into application performance bottlenecks.

Easy to setup. Very expensive. Play great with other AWS services.
The main issue is that metrics collected manually will never meet AWS metrics which are used to bill your stack. And of course AWS point of view will be much costly. Their Enterprise Support can not understand why metrics extracted from DB itself do not meet billing metrics and will endlessly redirect you to yet another expert.

Vorteile

Requires minimum knowledge or time to set up the database.
Everything you need is basically there.
Documentation is fantastic.
It just works and takes all the burden of infrastructure management from you.
A handful of engines, version, and extensions to them are supprted.
Integrated seamless to AWS infrastructure.

Nachteile

Price. It will literally eat 7/8 of your infrastructure budget.
Metrics lies. Performance insight simply does not work. Note, this is an opinion of somebody who paid for AWS Enterprise support (sigh, that's me)
Backups are not backups per se, this is filesystem rsync. So it is easy to end up with broken DB.
Support is very poor.

Amazon RDS - the backbone of your AWS stack

Bewertet am 6.5.2022

Waaaay back in the day, we owned and managed huge machines on which we ran our database software. ...

Waaaay back in the day, we owned and managed huge machines on which we ran our database software. It was Oracle for a while, then we moved to mySQL. But the machine and the software were our problem to handle. Most of the time (because these are not new technologies), there were no problems. But when there were problems, there were huge problems. Because like many websites/apps, data is at the core of what we do. No database, and everything goes poof. Since switching to RDS, this has become a thing of the past. We tell RDS what kind of beefy setup we want, and they do the rest. The mySQL patching. The upgrades. If we want to move to a bigger instance, that's pretty straightforward, too. Database hosting at pretty large scale, with just a few clicks. And no machines to worry about. You get decent (but not amazing) visibility into the instance at any time. But, basically, what you really get is peace of mind, not having to worry that your system's most critical layer will flake out on you. That's worth a lot. Also: AWS's Aurora is a very nice port of mySQL. We've had no issues there either.

Vorteile

Aurora is a great port of mySQL - very compatible and super fast
Prices are always going one direction: down
Scalable way huge with just a few clicks
Automated backups, patching, upgrades
You can still do a lot of customization using PL/MYSQL
The instances just stay up and running - becomes one less thing to worry about
You have options: both mySQL and Postgres

Nachteile

It's not amazingly easy to update the various variables that enable you to configure your mySQL instance.
I wish it was a bit easier to get monitoring that would give you more granular insight into what's causing issues.
You don't have quite as much flexibility and control over special packages you might install to do special stuff (calculating the Levenschtein distance between words, for example).

Overall, Amazon RDS has been very useful to us. It has saved us tremendous amounts of time just in the provisioning, scaling, and maintenance activities alone.

Vorteile

I like how easy it is to scale RDS up and down alongside its monitoring features which can be conveniently accessed via AWS console.

Nachteile

The burst balance limit for the underlying EBS disk gave us lots of problems. I wish this feature was more user-friendly.

AWS RDS can be linked with Victorops/splunk/slack and what not to constantly monitor the state of the database and set up alerts for catching problems. It can automatically save regular copies of the database.

Vorteile

ease of setup
ease of taking snapshots
no configurational drainers
very easy to set up alerts for monitoring problems in the database
debugging is a breeze.

Nachteile

It is easy to get lost without an UI.
also replicating databases can get stuck sometimes if you don't know what you are doing.
replication can be pain depending upon whether you want (master-master) or (master-slaves)

My company need a simple and fast scalable solution for managing MySQL databases therefore we chose RDS. Prior to RDS we were managing DB clusters installed on VMs on Hyper Visors, and it was a cumbersome job. Though switching to RDS does make our life easy but RDS is not a cheap solution though.

Vorteile

Easily Scalable as per need.
AWS manage you infrastructure completely.
Fast Disaster recovery if planned the architecture correctly.
Multi AZ deployment and Read replica supported.
Supported various DB services like MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server and Postgres.
Backup procedure is very easy.

Nachteile

Cost on higher side.
Lack of control on your DB instance, though it's good but at times you need some tweaking todo.

Overall it has amazing control features and i have never experienced any kind of downtime with them, they also have very enhanced security features so data birch is out of the question.

Vorteile

I is easy to integrate and implement also the customer support is quite good when one is having problems with any of their features.Its also important to note that the backup and recovery are free if you turn on the automation feature

Nachteile

Auto backup is not automatically turned on so if one forgets to turn it on this might cause challenges in the long run, also i don't think its right even after paying for the solution upfront that one has to leave their financial information on the system

Had A Really Great Experience with RDS, I have been evaluating Aurora with Native RDS so i will be talking more about Aurora in this Review

Vorteile

RDS provides support for verity of database systems like mysql, postgreSql, Maria DB, Oracle, Microsoft Sql and a hybrid Aurora (supports both mysql & psql)

Resizing, network management processes like subnet and security group are easily manageable.

Using Aurora it has become easy to transfer data from DB to S3 using "INTO OUTFILE S3" query

Aurora is really faster when it comes to executing heavy flock of query simultaneously when compared with its native RDS, it increases the over all through put

Aurora Server less is a extremely cost effective solution when used with proper configurations, it scales up and scales down as per its usage (pay per sec)

Supports Auto Backing up and scheduled snapshotting which stores the DB snapshot in S3, which helps in recovery at times of data deleted by mistake or data corruption by some failure in the application etc

Aurora provides Export Snapshot to S3 feature, its a additional feature towards data movement from RDS to S3, from this we can easily migrate data from RDS to Redshift or Athena via S3

Nachteile

Can't change subnet of a multi AZ RDS Database directly, to achieve this i had to first change my DB to single AZ

Aurora Server less dose not scale up when used with low CPU utilising application, user should have given the flexibility to change the autoscaling parameter for Aurora server less (CPU utilisation 70%)

Aurora the use of "INTO OUTFILE S3" query requires some additional setup steps at the s3 bucket end and IAM role which is well documented, but quite confusing,

Aurora dose not support newer mysql or psql versions which are supported by its native RDS's

Aurora when compared with its native RDS its slower for executing single queries,
officers Aurora is really faster when it comes to executing heavy flock of query simultaneously, but at the least we expect Aurora to perform as the same level as its native RDS when it comes to single queries

Aurora's Export Snapshot to S3 feature only supports Parquet file format, and on trigging Export it takes more time to start, it wold be better if the process starts instantaneously

Managing database servers is an expensive time sink. RDS lets you focus more on the business needs instead of managing servers.

Vorteile

It makes your life way easier by not having to manage a database server. Amazon RDS abstracts all the server stuff away so you just focus on managing the actual database content itself.

Nachteile

The UI is a bit clunky and some of the parameterization options are a bit difficult to use. There used to be a couple of bugs as well but they were fixed thankfully. With the lack of control over the server it can be a bit annoying if something is broken and you can't fix it.

Overall Amazon RDS has been a very good solution in our switch to the cloud. Other options have come out that may be better for most people, such as Amazon Aurora, but it's great for fine-grained control over instances.

Vorteile

Amazon RDS has worked really well for us for our cloud DB solution. It's pretty intuitive and easy to use, and you can choose exactly what instances sizes, storage sizes, etc. you want.

Nachteile

Amazon RDS has a strange method for determining how many IOPS you get (Input/Output Operations per Second): it's based mostly on your db storage size. So if you have a smaller database that is hit a lot, you can get throttled with the IOPS. But if you have a large database that isn't hit as often, you end up having a lot of unused IOPS.

Easiest database management there is

Bewertet am 13.6.2018

Peace of mind if it's about database administration, backup and availability.

Peace of mind if it's about database administration, backup and availability.

Vorteile

It's fully managed database service with multiple database types available (Amazon Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL Server) - you can chose whatever you like or used to run. It's really easy to migrate from existing database of the same type. RDS is highly available and durable service if you chose to run in multi AZ (multiple availability zone/datacenter) scenario (master/slave replication). Amazon will do all the administration task like upgrades or failover for you. Max database storage size is 16 TB (in most cases) and you pay only for what you use.

Nachteile

It'a a little pricey and not all advance database configuration/administratio options are available if you compare it to on premise deployment.

2. Version are dynamic and can be chosen/changed through simple steps.
3. Restriction can be easily managed through subnets and security groups.
4. It has high uptime overcoming downtime and can be scaled easily.

Nachteile

1. Some time for the beginners it is not easy to setup or manage.
2. Pricing is bit high if you are creating a small instance DB.
3. Integrations with 3rd party is quite a bit complex.
4. No fully admin controls are given to manage the DB.

I use RDS every day across a number of products. It's always been my go-to for a managed database service.

Vorteile

RDS is highly available, easy to scale and extremely customisable. Whether I want to set up a small MySQL database or a PostgreSQL instance to be run at scale, RDS is my first port of call.

Nachteile

RDS can start to get pricey as the instance sizes increase. For most consumers with relatively optimised database queries, this would not be an issue - but for those that have not aligned their applications for efficiency, this could be problematic.

The benefit we got from using RDS is that we have full control of the RDS instance. Unlike heroku RDS allows me to create any number of databases i want plus it provides 20 GB of PostgresSQL instance in its free tier

Vorteile

Amazon RDS provides arelational database instance that you can use to create any number to databases. All data are stored in SSD that provides faster read and write compared to conventional magnetic disk. Data can be secured by applying a security group such that the database can get request from within AWS (EC2 servers). RDS provides variety of databases each with their free tier.

Nachteile

Prices to enable multi availability zones for an instance is just double to their singe availability zone. It is too costly. For beginner the set up of RDS is quite confusing. Sometimes It doesn't display the estimated price of while setting up resources of an instance.

- Other than that it offers exactly what you expect from a managed db and more

Great way to deal with Databases

Bewertet am 24.7.2018

Vorteile

Easily scalable system. Different DBMS available, so everyone can find a good fit. A lot of metrics available, so you can track what's going on with your databases.

Nachteile

Once set, some of the setting are not easily changed (like space reserved for RDS instance). Restoring includes restore of complete instance, not just a DB, so in some scenarios it can take a lot of time.
