Deploy Oracle Database step by step on Amazon EVS with FSx for ONTAP
This post provides step-by-step procedures to deploy Oracle Database on Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP as NFS datastore storage. You provision storage volumes, mount NFS datastores, install Oracle, and configure SnapMirror replication for cross-region disaster recovery.
Deploy open source Regional availability tools in your VPC
Deploy AWS Regional availability data as infrastructure you own. Capability Insights for AWS runs a self-hosted dashboard in your VPC that auto-refreshes daily, and Workload Analysis narrows the catalog to the services your account actually runs, so your Regional expansion gap analysis focuses only on what you deploy.
How CSIRO built scalable, cost-optimized genomic variant querying on AWS
Learn how researchers at CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, built Serverless Beacon (sBeacon), a scalable serverless solution for securely querying genomic variant data on AWS. sBeacon implements the GA4GH Beacon standard using Amazon S3, AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon Athena to support production-scale clinical and research applications.
Unlocking the future of video data: March Networks cloud storage on AWS
Enterprise video surveillance is operating at an unprecedented scale as organizations across retail, banking, quick-service restaurants (QSR), convenience stores, and transportation networks generate petabytes of video data across thousands of distributed locations. As retention requirements grow and organizations seek to extract more operational insights from video, traditional on-premise storage models are becoming increasingly difficult and […]
Specification-driven composition for flexible data workflows
Specification-driven composition addresses a common scalability bottleneck in data pipelines. Data pipelines often start as simple scripts, but as they grow, you duplicate transformation logic and small changes cascade across multiple workflows. Copying and modifying data transformation logic across scripts leads to workflows that become difficult to manage at scale. Tracking what each pipeline does […]
S&P Global’s innovative disaster recovery strategy using Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP snapshots
In this post, we explain how S&P Global Market Intelligence implemented an innovative disaster recovery solution for their Capital IQ platform using Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. This solution enables immediate failover to read-only mode in a secondary region within 15 minutes, followed by full read-write recovery when needed. This approach achieves reduction in failover time while maintaining data consistency for global financial operations.
Modernizing financial analytics with Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio
