Amazon Aurora

Review about Amazon Aurora

Commentaires : The advantages are many and many, and it is easy to use and safe. as for the problems, they are few and do not affect the user, such as the difficulty of using it at the beginning, and this is not a problem from my point of view, because this problem is present in the program, application and site .

Avantages :

Keep the data, and this is a good thing, and this is one of its best features, and some programs are not safe, but this program very safe and very easy to use and retrieve my information is easy .

Inconvénients :

Some plugins do not work, but later they change and work well. At the first use, you say that it is difficult, but with time, the program is easy, and it must be developed more in order to be easy for the user at the beginning.

No concerns for speed or our SLAs

Commentaires : Years ago, as our product and userbase grew enough that basic RDS wasn't cutting it, our IT team was surprised at how affordable the move to Aurora was, considering all the improvements. We've never looked back and don't have to spend nearly any working hours on scaling, migrations, and backups. We couldn't do what we do with out it.

Avantages :

The reliability, speed, and ease of scaling that Aurora offers are unmatched at their price. RDS was great when we started out, but with our software's growth, moving to Aurora was an easy decision.

Inconvénients :

The software has pretty much checked every box we have for managed database solutions. The only *ding* they get is for some often slow support response times/solutions.

MAke Services Esier

Avantages :

everything on one platform thats the most amazing things.

Inconvénients :

Hard functionality. find out other option is hard

Amazon Aurora: The service that lets you launch a production-ready database in just a few clicks

Commentaires : Amazon Aurora has been very useful in my projects, as we have production workloads running queries on millions of records, and so far the performance has been good and very consistent. We have practically not had to worry about database administration tasks, and most of the management is done very easily through the console.

Avantages :

Amazon Aurora is a highly flexible service that allows you to quickly and easily set up a robust database for production environments. What I like the most is that I don’t need to spend much time or effort on the regular administrative tasks I would typically have to handle with an on-premise database server. Another advantage is the monitoring tools provided by the AWS console for this service. Also like the feature of scalability, because you can configure it to adjust its storage capacity automatically as data grows, without the need for manual expansions or concerns about running out of space.

Inconvénients :

Personally, the only issue I encountered was during a version upgrade of my database due to end-of-support requirements. The upgrade process through the Amazon Aurora console took several hours, and I couldn’t get clear visibility into what was happening during the upgrade. Fortunately, it was just a one-time situation.

Aurora - if you're on RDS, you should definitely give it a look

Commentaires : We had been on RDS for a number of years, happily running mySQL, when Aurora came out. The timing felt good: Oracle was just about buy mySQL (I think - not 100% sure on timing), so we were already feeling a bit edgy about what future support for mySQL was going to cost. It was hyped as a cheaper, faster alternative to mySQL -- and once we dipped our toes in the water, we discovered that's pretty much exactly what it is. We run a number of enterprise-class websites on an RDBMS backend, and we migrated from mySQL to Aurora within a few weeks. It was as simple as running database dumps, importing them into Aurora, and changing the pointers. Really. The interfaces are all identical, we didn't have to change any code at all (except for one thing -- see below), and once we cut over, it just worked. Which is basically what you want from your database. I'm very happy we switched over, and honestly, I still just kind of think of our database as mySQL. I use mySQL GUI tools to connect to it, write regular mySQL SQL queries to interact with it, and everything else just feels like the mySQL I grew up with. Only it's significantly cheaper, and feels faster. Win. The only caveat: there was one plugin we had in our mySQL install (it was a thing that let you do Levenshtein distance calculations) that was incompatible with Aurora. The plugin didn't exist. If you have a SUPER customized mySQL setup, look into whether Aurora supports all you do. But for us we never looked back.

Avantages :

* Pretty much a one-for-one swap with mySQL, only faster and cheaper * Not any learning curve * Super reliable

Inconvénients :

* If you have a seriously customized mysql installation, there may be some plugins that don't work
