RDS provides high availability through Multi AZ We recommend always running production workloads

in Multi AZ Mode Primary and secondary DB instances lie in different

Availability Zones Automatic failover (1–2 minutes typically) Enabled by a single click

Common failure scenarios mitigated Loss of availability in primary AZ Loss of network connectivity to primary DB instance Compute unit or storage failure on primary DB

Encryption in Motion SSL: Database traffic encryption Available for all six engines

Encryption at RestDB instance storageAutomated backupsRead ReplicasSnapshotsTwo-tiered key hierarchy using envelope encryption:

Unique data key encrypts customer data AWS KMS master keys encrypt data keys

Benefits: Limits risk of compromised data key Better performance for encrypting large data Easier to manage small number of master keys Centralized access and audit of key activity

Access to over 50 new CPU, memory, file system, and disk I/O metrics as low as 1 second intervals

RDS Enhanced Monitoring

Automated Backups• Scheduled daily backup of entire instance• Up to 35 day retention for backups• Point-in-Time Recovery to any point in time during the

backup retention period, up to the last 5 minutes of database usage

• Backups stored in S3

Manual Snapshots• Full copies of your Amazon RDS database instance• Backed by Amazon S3• Can be used to create a new RDS instance• Remain encrypted if using encryption

Amazon RDS Durability Options

Amazon RDS Customers

RDS for Oracle and SQL Server

Amazon RDS for Oracle We recommend you consider

RDS first Focus on tasks that bring value to

your business Focus on high level tuning tasks

and schema optimization Lack of in-house expertise

managing databases

Oracle on Amazon EC2 You need full control over the DB

instances Control over backups, replication

and clustering Use features and options not

available in Amazon RDS Size and performance needs

exceed Amazon RDS offering

Choosing the right solution for your needs

Speed of provisioning, Secure, Fully Managed RDS experience

Single-click HA, Auto Scaling

Flexible Licensing models

BYOL (Bring-Your-Own-License)

LI (License Included) – Standard Edition (SE1 and SE2)

Ease of Migration/Data Movement

Engines supported – 11g R2, 12c

Oracle Label Security (OLS), Enterprise Manager (OEM)

Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), Partitioning, Advanced Compression,

Set up Oracle RAC clusters

Alternatively, set up primary and standby instances using Active Data Guard

Create and manage DNS entries

Detect instance failure conditions

Detect network failure conditions

Detect storage failure conditions

Decide when to fail-over….

Re-establish primary secondary connections.

High Availability via Amazon RDS Multi-AZ

Choose cross-region snapshot copy for even greater durability, ease of migration Copy a database snapshot to a different AWS Region Restore in the case of a regional disaster Or use it to migrate a database to a different region

Cross-Region Disaster Recovery in AWS

Replicate Data Across Regions to have a warm standby ready to fail over to.

Logical replication supported by RDS includes: AWS Database Migration Service Oracle GoldenGate

What you need to do

RDS for SQL Server Native Backup/Restore

RDS for SQL Server Native Backup/Restore (.bak file) support Leverages the native SQL Server Backup/Restore functionality Allows customers to save their .bak files to their Amazon S3 buckets Can be used to restore on premise SQL Server backups to an RDS Instance Database level operations

To enable Native/Backup restore on your RDS for SQL Server instance Create a new Amazon S3 bucket or use an existing one Create an AWS IAM role to grant RDS access to your S3 bucket or a folder in it Attach the IAM role to your RDS for SQL Server instance using Option Groups Use SQL Server Management Studio to call stored procedures that expose .bak

.bak

Amazon RDS for SQL Server Always Run Production Workloads in

Multi-AZ Mode Primary and secondary DB nodes in different

High Availability (HA)

Amazon RDS SQL Server Tooling Support

Manage using common tools: e.g. SSMS Migrate data using:

Amazon RDS Migration Tool Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing

Wizard Maximum 30 databases per Amazon RDS instance Data source for SSAS, SSIS and SSRS

Hybrid On-Premise and AWS Deployment

Microsoft AD directory + on-prem AD Extend your internal network to AWS Private connectivity to your AWS VPC

(VPN, DirectConnect) We recommend extending your AD
