giventoflyfish Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Has anyone used Amazon Aurora with IPS? I had success with WordPress and was thinking of using it for my forum as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giventoflyfish Posted February 11, 2018 Author Share Posted February 11, 2018 Haven’t seen a response but for those interested, if did move to Aurora without any issues and performance looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting, I'll have to look into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prupdated Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The concept looks good. But the cost could be a problem depending on how busy your site is. You have to add up the cpu, database storage, requests, and network transfer together. For example, I run MySQL in its own container on a pretty decent $100 dedicated server along with the main web server. So I track all the statistics on what just what sql is doing by itself. My Aurora pricing estimate was $300 per month. I have 150 million database requests per month. The network traffic is also pretty chatty. I have about 200 GB per month incoming and 2,300 GB outgoing raw traffic from the sql server. Also consider latency between where you’re hosting and the database. That has to be kept very low or page load speeds get long. I assume to use Aurora effectively you really need to be running your web server at aws in the same location - or at least somewhere right next to it.
