Learn how Presence migrated off a monolithic Amazon RDS for MySQL instance, with near-zero downtime, using replication filters

Presence is a leading provider of live therapy and evaluation services for PreK-12 schools throughout the United States. Amazon RDS for MySQL has been a core part of Presence’s data architecture for many years. Presence used RDS read replicas, with replication filtering, to migrate applications from their centralized RDS for MySQL DB instance to dedicated DB instances. This approach allowed them to migrate each service, on its own schedule, with little downtime. In this post, we provide a practical example for migrating using the same method.

High availability for Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture in AWS

GoldenGate supports Classic and Microservices Architectures. In Part 1 of this series, we covered high availability for GoldenGate classic architecture in AWS. In this post, we discuss a reference architecture for GoldenGate Microservices Architecture (MA) in AWS. The GoldenGate Hub is a widely used deployment model that simplifies operations and lessens the use of system resources on both the source and target systems. This is in contrast to the conventional method where GoldenGate components run directly on the source and target systems.

Analyzing PL/SQL and T-SQL code using Amazon Bedrock

In this post, we use the Anthropic Claude3 Sonnet large language model (LLM) on Amazon Bedrock to provide a detailed breakdown of the complex PL/SQL and T-SQL code, making it more understandable and comprehensible for developers who are new to a code base or working with unfamiliar code, because it helps them understand the logic and flow of the code more effectively.

Use Amazon RDS Proxy with IAM authentication for cross-account access

This post is a follow-up to Use Amazon RDS Proxy to provide access to RDS databases across AWS accounts, addressing cross-account connectivity when using RDS Proxy. We discuss how you can achieve cross-account connectivity while taking advantage of the simplicity and benefits of IAM authentication.

Faster development with Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon Q Developer

Amazon Q Developer, a generative artificial intelligence (AI) assistant, can help accelerate the development of applications on AWS. In this post, we create a DynamoDB table using IaC then perform create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations on the table using Python and Boto3 (with additional observations for JavaScript and Java at the end of the post). We demonstrate how Amazon Q can improve your speed of development for these tasks.

Migrate an Oracle database to Amazon RDS for Oracle using Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture

In this post, we show you how to migrate an Oracle database to an Amazon RDS for Oracle DB instance. The solution uses Oracle Data Pump for initial data load and Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture installed on an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance as the Oracle GoldenGate hub for change data capture.
