Databases in the Hosted Cloud


Please join Percona’s Chief Evangelist, Colin Charles as he presents Databases in the Hosted Cloud.

Nearly everyone today uses some form of database in the hosted cloud. You can use hosted MySQL, MariaDB, Percona Server, and PostgreSQL in several cloud providers as a database as a service (DBaaS).

In this webinar, Colin Charles explores how to efficiently deploy a cloud database configured for optimal performance, with a particular focus on MySQL.

You’ll learn the differences between the various public cloud offerings for Amazon RDS including Aurora, Google Cloud SQL, Rackspace OpenStack DBaaS, Microsoft Azure, and Alibaba Cloud, as well as the access methods and the level of control you have. Hosting in the cloud means you can’t control every aspect of a deployment, but you’ll probably be happier knowing much of it is managed for you.

Topics include:
Backup strategies
Planning multiple data centers for availability
Where to host your application
How to get the most performance out of the solution
Cost
Monitoring
Moving from one DBaaS to another
Moving from a DBaaS to your own hosted platform
