AWS integration

Hi Dojo,

Is it possible that I can use Keyspaces in Amazon for Dataminer offload DB.
Keyspaces is designed for Cassandra workloads.

Or

Can I integrate Dataminer with AWS RDS?
Please suggest

I'm curious about this one - subscribing - till now I've always considered fully separate use cases and differentiated between what would be a local DB and any other "offload" applications.

So, not really an answer from me, I'm afraid - just "broadcast" questions,
from one to many 🙂 ... although rather "DB" related: if the DataMiner offload option currently supports just MySQL/SQL/Oracle, what is the envisaged usage for AWS KeySpaces in an offload scenario?

Aren't Cassandra/Elastic just for local DBs?
Or... Is there any NoSQL-to-NoSQL scenario also available?

What I mean is: can the DataMiner DLL write to the expected offload DB type, regardless of the DB location (on-premise/cloud) or is there any additional requirement for "non on-premise" environments? (E.g. latency... ?)

I know that cloud native can bring in some unexpected behaviour, but as long as a connection string is available, does it actually matter if the offload DB is hosted in AWS? After all the offload DB solution is for a DB that isn't local to the agent.

This might need a separate post, but sharing here as it's the original question that inspired 🙂 actually, interested in any previous testing with any cloud provider
(AWS, GCP, Azure) for the classic offload types on SQL/MySQL/Oracle.

I've used the DataMiner Help section for the above scenarios - just added the "cloud" in purple (funny how we spend years learning visio, and then I find myself still stuck with MSpaint when it comes to quickly jotting down stuff 🙂 )

Alberto, you’re right. What we call ‘local’ or ‘offload’ databases can be hosted everywhere as long as there is connectivity towards the database system. The local database is where DataMiner (1) relies on the function and (2) does maintenance on (e.g. cleaning old records). The offload database is from a dataminer perspective ‘fire and forget’. I haven’t found records internally that verified the ‘offload-cloud-option’, but there is no reason I can think of this wouldn’t work. As you said, interesting topic.

Cool – thanks for feedback, Jan – much appreciated

Indeed with the whole focus on Cassandra (& ElasticSearch) clusters architecture, even the “local” DB isn’t “strictly” local anymore – need to revise how I refer to the different components
