Download as PPTX, PDF1 like216 views
This document discusses options for running SQL Server workloads on AWS, including using Amazon RDS and Amazon EC2. It provides a high-level overview of the features and capabilities of SQL Server when used with each AWS service. Key points include: - Amazon RDS provides a managed service for deploying SQL Server, handling tasks like maintenance, patching, backups and high availability. EC2 provides an unmanaged option where the customer handles these tasks. - Both RDS and EC2 support multiple versions of SQL Server. RDS automates tasks while EC2 gives more control over the SQL instance. - High availability options with RDS include multi-AZ deployments for automatic failover. With EC2

- 29. PerformancePlanning • SQL Server workloads typically benefit from large amounts of memory (caching) • Consider db.r4 - Memory Optimized instances • Edition and licensing may impact DB instance class options • DB instances can be modified to change the DB instance class • Requires a reboot (or failover in Multi-AZ) • Can scale compute capacity with the workload, if practical • DB instance can also be modified to change storage • Can modify size, type, and PIOPs • Size modifications available within minutes • Storage performance degraded during optimization
- 30. Multi-AZDeployments Enterprise-grade high availability Fault tolerance across multiple data centers • Automatic failover • Synchronous replication • Enabled with one click • Requires 3 AZs • Leverages DB mirroring Consider: Impact on mirroring of change heavy workloads (for example, index rebuilds) Availability Zone A Availability Zone B Application servers Database failure Standby Primary New standby
- 31. AmazonRDS Multi-AZin Depth Failure scenarios mitigated: • Loss of availability in primary AZ • Loss of network connectivity to principal DB node • Compute unit or storage failure on principal DB node Failover process: Mirroring Stopped AddressApply Debt Promote to Master Change DNS Endpoint Provision New Secondary Consider: • Implement retry logic at the application layer—trigger manual failover to test
- 32. RecentRDSSQLServerAnnouncements SQL Server Audit support • Audit Microsoft SQL Server databases by using the built-in SQL Server auditing mechanism. Always On Availability Groups supported in Microsoft SQL Server 2017 Amazon RDS Performance Insights is available for Amazon RDS for SQL Server Amazon RDS for SQL Server Increases the Database Limit Per Database Instance up to 100
- 33. • Join RDS for SQL Server to a domain • Domain provided by AWS Directory Services • Directory as a managed service • Deploy a MicrosoftAD directory • Fully managedAD forest • Primary and secondary domain controllers in different AZs • Ability to establish forest trusts UsingWindowsAuthentication
- 34. IntegratewithAmazonDirectoryService • Cloud-based Active Directory deployment using AWS Directory Services Microsoft AD • Managed directory • Credentials stored and managed in the directory • RDS DB instance joined to the directory operated domain • Add SQL Server logins for domain users, and authenticate using Windows Authentication virtual private cloud RDS SQL Server Enabled for Windows Authentication Amazon Directory Service
- 35. WindowsAuthenticationUsingOn-PremAD 1. Setup Managed AD 2. Setup RDS 3. Enable Windows Integrated Authentication to use Managed AD directory 4. Create a Trust with On-Premises Domain 5. Assign privileges to On- Premises for access to RDS
- 36. AutomatedBackups Point-in-time recovery for your DB instance • Scheduled daily volume backup of entire instance • Archive database change logs • 35–day maximum retention • Minimal impact on database performance Every day during your backup window, RDS creates a storage volume snapshot of your instance Every five minutes, RDS backs up the transaction logs of your database
- 37. NativeBackups • Backup and restore directly from S3 bucket • Leverages SQL Server’s native backup functionality • Supports Compression • Only full backups (no log shipping) Amazon RDS SQL Server Amazon S3 IAM SQL Server *.bak
- 39. UpgradingSQLServer2008R2toAmazonRDSfor SQLServer2016 SQL Server Database Compatibility – To maintain compatibility with older versions of SQL Server while upgrading, set the compatibility level to the SQL Server version you currently use. When performing an upgrade, RDS itself doesn’t change the compatibility level of the database Migrate to RDS SQL Server using: • Native backup restores • Ongoing replication with AWS DMS • Transactional replication
- 40. Summary:WhyMicrosoftSQLServeronAWS • Largest Global Reach • Every region with high availability zones • Cost benefits through license optimizations • Increase innovation and flexibility for future • Improve security posture
