Enabling nested transactions in Amazon DynamoDB using C#
In this post, I introduce a framework for managing atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) compliant transactions in Amazon DynamoDB using C#, featuring support for nested transactions. This capability allows you to implement sophisticated logic with finer control over data consistency and error handling within your .NET applications. With this nested transaction framework, you can isolate issues, allow for partial rollbacks, and build maintainable, modular workflows on top of the built-in transactional capabilities of DynamoDB.
Automated parameter and option group change monitoring in Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora
In this post, you will learn how to build a serverless monitoring solution sending detailed alerts whenever Amazon RDS parameter groups are modified, including which databases are affected and whether a restart is required.
Export Amazon SimpleDB domain data to Amazon S3
As AWS continues to evolve its services to better align with customer needs and modern workloads, we’re excited to introduce a new export functionality for Amazon SimpleDB . By using this feature, you can export domain data to Amazon S3 in JSON format, unlocking new opportunities for long-term storage, and migration to purpose-built databases. The export generates a complete JSON representation of Amazon SimpleDB data. In this post, we walk you through how to use the new export functionality, highlight best practices, and share monitoring functionality to help you make the most of it.
