Channel Corporation is a B2B software as a service (SaaS) startup that operates the all-in-one artificial intelligence (AI) messenger Channel Talk. In Part 1 of this series, we introduced our motivation for NoSQL adoption, technical problems with business growth, and considerations for migration from PostgreSQL to Amazon DynamoDB. In this post, we share our experience integrating with other services to solve areas that couldn’t be addressed with DynamoDB alone.

In this post, we demonstrate how you can use Spring Cloud to interact with Amazon DynamoDB and capture table-level changes using Kinesis Data Streams through familiar Spring constructs. We run you through a basic implementation and configuration that will help you get started.

In this post, we demonstrate how to create a centralized monitoring solution using Database Activity Streams and Amazon OpenSearch Service to meet audit requirements. The solution enables the security team to gather audit data from several Kinesis data streams, enrich, process, and store it with retention to meet compliance requirements, and produce relevant alarms and dashboards.

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the high-level architecture of multi-threaded full load and change data capture (CDC) settings to tune related parameters for better performance to replicate data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Streams target using AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS). In Part 2, we provided some examples of how we […]

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the architecture of multi-threaded full load and change data capture (CDC) settings, and considerations and best practices for configuring various parameters when replicating data using AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) from a relational database system to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. In this post, we demonstrate the […]

AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) makes it possible to replicate to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams from relational databases, data warehouses, NoSQL databases, and other types of data stores. You can use Kinesis data streams to collect and process large streams of data records in real time. Replicating data changes to a Kinesis data stream […]

Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) Multi-AZ deployments provide enhanced availability and durability for your RDS database instances. You can deploy highly available, durable PostgreSQL databases in three Availability Zones using Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster deployments with two readable standby DB instances. With a Multi-AZ DB cluster, applications gain automatic failovers in typically under […]
