AWS RDS Custom for Oracle and SQL Server

Overview

The Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. It allows organizations to automate time-consuming administration tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backups. It frees focus that can be utilized on applications, eliminating extra overhead. Amazon RDS is available for Oracle and SQL Server, amongst other database services.

AWS has announced a new version of their RDS databases, thus, Delphix is adding AWS RDS Custom support for Oracle. AWS RDS Custom is an RDS service that allows Delphix to access the operating system and database level functions required to provision vDBs into the AWS RDS PaaS (Product as a Service) database service.

With AWS RDS Custom, organizations using Delphix can obtain the full benefits of PaaS and Delphix automation for their target environments.

Users ingest data from production in RDS Oracle/SQL Server, mask the data, and provision secure copies back to RDS. All Delphix automation tools work and also manual operations via the UI.
Delphix data compression and block sharing capabilities will allow organizations to potentially reduce their AWS RDS storage consumption.

Support for AWS RDS Custom is granted only on supported database and operating system versions.

Contact a Delphix representative to request this capability.
