Features
High Security Database Protection
ApsaraDB for MySQL has been certified by a number of national and international standards, including but not limited to the ISO20000 certification, SOC certification, and PCI-DSS certification, and security classification of information (level 3).
Pre-protection
You can configure IP whitelists to allow only the specified instances to access resources. You can also use VPCs to implement advanced network access control.
Attack Detection and Prevention
Anti-DDoS is automatically enabled for public addresses to ensure business continuity. Links are encrypted through SSL to prevent man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. You can enable TDE to automatically encrypt data that has been saved to disks. The advanced security mode can protect your databases against SQL injections.
Security Event Auditing
Supports SQL auditing to record all visitors and their activities. This ensures that all security issues can be tracked.
Multiple Deployment Architectures
Supports multiple deployment architectures to meet availability requirements.
Active/Standby Architecture
All RDS instances apply the active/standby architecture. Two instances running on different servers can automatically synchronize data with each other. When the active instance is unavailable, the system automatically switches the database connection to the standby instance.
Same City Disaster Recovery
You can deploy active and standby instances in different zones with independent power supplies and networks. This improves the availability of data.
Remote Disaster Recovery
ApsaraDB for MySQL supports off-site disaster recovery instances. Instances in different regions synchronize data with each other in real time. When an exception occurs, you can switch your business from the active instance to the standby instance to ensure high availability.
Flexibility and Scalability
ApsaraDB for MySQL is billed based on your actual usage and needs. This enables you to quickly and flexibly scale up your system.
Multiple Editions
Provides the Standalone Edition, Active/Standby Edition, and Three-member Financial Edition.
Auto Scaling
Enables you to scale up memory and disk space at anytime to meet your business development needs.
Dedicated Server Configuration
Offers purchase plans with dedicated high-performance physical servers at lower costs. Each instance supports a maximum of 60 vCPUs, 470 GB memory, 50,000 IOPS, and 3 TB storage.
Read-only Instances
Horizontally scales up the reading capability of databases. Each read-only instance is assigned a dedicated connection address. You can use these dedicated instance addresses to share the workload from the user service client.
Multiple Maintenance Features for Cost Efficiency
Multiple features have been developed by Alibaba Cloud professional database services based on years of experience in operations and maintenance. This saves you 90% of the database operations and maintenance costs.
Backup and Recovery
You can customize backup policies and restore a cloned instance to any checkpoint to recover lost or deleted data.
Upgrade
