The Challenge

The client faced performance and scalability issues with self-managed MySQL databases on EC2, along with high maintenance overhead, challenges in ensuring high availability and disaster recovery, and difficulties in maintaining security and compliance. Centralized monitoring was also inefficient, prompting a migration to Amazon RDS for MySQL to streamline operations, improve performance, and enhance security and monitoring.

Solutions

• Provisioned AWS DMS to migrate MySQL databases from Amazon EC2 to Amazon RDS, addressing performance and maintenance challenges.
• Set up AWS DMS endpoints and defined migration tasks to ensure accurate data transfer and deployed an Amazon RDS read replica for improved performance and high availability.
• Verified data integrity post-migration, isolated API servers in private subnets for enhanced security, and configured Amazon CloudWatch and Amazon SNS for efficient monitoring and alerts.

The Results

Migration to Amazon RDS boosted query performance by 35%, ensured 99.99% uptime with rapid failovers, and enhanced security, while automated processes cut maintenance by 40% and real-time monitoring improved response times by 60%.
