Aurora: Reimagining the relational database

Scale-out, distributed architecture using purpose-built

storage system

Service-oriented architecture leveraging AWS services

Fully managed service, automating administrative tasks

Cloud-native capabilities simplify use4

Aurora is fast . . .

5x more throughput than MySQL; 3x more throughput than PostgreSQL


Scale-out, distributed, multi-tenant design . . .

Purpose-built, log-structured distributed storage

Storage volume is striped across hundreds of storage nodes distributed over 3 different Availability Zones

Master and up to 15 readers all point to the same storage

6-way replication, 2 per AZ

Quorums survive AZ+1 failure

Customer Cases - Amazon Aurora

“Once we moved our SQL Server

applications to Amazon Aurora

PostgreSQL, we saw a significant

performance increase without needing

to do any optimization.”

- Peter Kobes, Architect, Davinci

“By migrating .NET applications

to AWS and modernizing, we

were able to go from releasing

six software features per year to

releasing more than six features

per month.”

- Alexander Lystad,

Chief Cloud Architect, Visma

Fast database cloning with Aurora

• Available for both MySQL and PostgreSQL compatible versions of Aurora

• Creation of clone takes a few minutes

• Data copy happens only on write, when the original and cloned volumes start to differ

• Operations on clone do not affect the source cluster

• Up to 15 clones from the same source

• Pay only for the data storage difference on the clone

Legacy applications present several migration

challenges

Lost expertise, code and/or installation media

High cost and time commitment for refactoring or recoding the application

High risk of upgrade failure

Dependencies on older runtime versions like Java, .NET etc.

Incompatible highly customized commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) applications
