DAT336: Aurora Serverless: Scalable, Cost-Effective Application Deployment Dec 01, 2018

Show notes

Amazon Aurora Serverless is an on-demand, autoscaling configuration for Aurora (MySQL-compatible edition) where the database automatically starts up, shuts down, and scales up or down capacity based on your application's needs. It enables you to run your database in the cloud without managing any database instances. Aurora Serverless is a simple, cost-effective option for infrequent, intermittent, or unpredictable workloads. In this session, we explore these use cases, take a look under the hood, and delve into the future of serverless databases. We also hear a case study from a customer building new functionality on top of Aurora Serverless.

DAT402: Using Performance Insights to Optimize Database Performance Dec 01, 2018

Show notes

Despite the importance of cloud databases as a core foundation for applications, many businesses face challenges in identifying database performance issues. Visibility into database performance is difficult due to a wide range of incomplete tools that can be difficult to install, configure, and maintain. While these tools may provide a wide range of statistics, they lack a standard methodology for analyzing the statistics to identify performance problems. In this session, learn how Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) changes this by providing database performance monitoring that is automatically configured, easy to use, and based on a clear actionable methodology.
