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.

In this post, we provide different options for data migration from an SAP ASE on-premises database to SAP ASE on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) based on the size of data, application downtime, and data compliance. The migration methods include using AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) and SAP ASE native features.

WAX is a blockchain-based system designed for the unique demands of the gaming industry. It provides high transaction throughput and near-instant block finality. With WAX, game developers can decouple in-game digital assets from a single in-game world and let gamers use them in new contexts such as building walls of fame, creating personal online trophy […]

Windows Authentication offers a secure and efficient mechanism for authentication management in Microsoft SQL Server. Many customers use Microsoft Entra ID (previously Azure AD) as their identity provider for Windows authentication. With the launch of support to join Amazon RDS for SQL Server to self-managed Active Directory, you can now join your Amazon Relational Database […]

When dealing with multiple database engines or schemas that share data with each other, you’re faced with the difficulty of establishing cross-engine database connectivity. To overcome this challenge, PostgreSQL offers foreign data wrappers (FDW), which are libraries that facilitate communication with external data sources by abstracting the complexities of data source connection and data retrieval. […]

SAP SQL Anywhere (also known as Sybase SQL Anywhere) is a database which is widely used in Information Technology and Services industry. Migration from SAP SQL Anywhere to Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for SQL Server or Microsoft SQL Server on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is challenging because as of writing this post, […]

One of the steps in migrating a database to the cloud involves transferring existing data from the source (on premises) to the target (cloud). For medium and large databases, such as those ranging from hundreds of gigabytes to 5 terabytes, speed of data transfer matters. One of the challenges is to minimize the downtime of […]

In this post, you learn how to deploy a cloud-based development environment with which to build, test, and deploy smart contracts on the public Ethereum Goerli testnet via a dedicated Ethereum full node managed using Amazon Managed Blockchain. You can also use the steps outlined in this post to create a development environment on the […]

In this post, we advance the architecture that was discussed in Implement active-active replication with RDS Custom for Oracle: Part 1 – High Availability, where we implemented an Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle solution with multi-master and high availability. This post will show you how to add high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) using Oracle […]

Many customers are faced with the challenge of building and operating a hybrid infrastructure to support workloads that must run both in the cloud and on premises. In many cases, these hybrid workloads rely on a relational database to support the workload, which can be particularly challenging to build and support across a hybrid infrastructure. […]
