Introduction to RDS for PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL
 PostgreSQL, or "PG", evolved from POSTGRES at the
University of California, Berkeley. After more than 30
years of development, PostgreSQL has become the
most powerful open-source database in the world. It
has earned a reputation for reliability, stability, and
data consistency, and has become the preferred
choice as an open-source relational database for
many enterprises.

HUAWEI CLOUD RDS for PostgreSQL

 PostgreSQL is a typical open-source relational database.
It excels in data reliability and integrity. It supports
Internet e-commerce, location-based application
systems, financial insurance systems, complex data
object processing, and other application scenarios.

RDS Key Feature - High Availability
Advantages
 RDS can provide high availability and failover support for DB
Read/write
instances with just a few clicks.

Compute Compute  Running DB instances with high availability can enhance

availability during planned system maintenance, and help
Failover protect databases against the failure of a single DB instance.
 High availability DB instances use independent storage to
Primary Standby
instance instance provide data redundancy and improve data reliability.

Solutions
Data replication  The primary DB instance is asynchronously or semi-
Read/write
synchronously replicated to the standby DB instance.
 If the primary DB instance fails, RDS quickly and automatically
Storage Storage switches over to the standby DB instance and continues to serve
database read and write requests. After the failover is complete,
the direction of the replication between the primary and
standby DB instances is reversed.

DB Instance Lifecycle Management
The basic building block of RDS is the DB instance. A DB instance is an isolated database environment in the cloud. A DB
instance can contain multiple user-created databases, and you can access it using the same tools and applications that you
use with a stand-alone DB instance. You can use the RDS console or API to create and modify a DB instance.

Create - Buying an RDS DB Instance
Scenarios
 This page describes how to quickly buy an RDS DB instance.

Procedure
1. Log in to the management console.

2. Click Service List. Under Database, click Relational Database Service. The RDS console is displayed.

3. On the Instance Management page, click Buy DB Instance.

4. On the displayed page, select a billing mode and configure information about the DB instance, storage, and network. Then, click Next.

5. If the DB instance is billed on the pay-per-use basis, confirm the specifications. If the DB instance is billed on the yearly/monthly basis, confirm the
order.

6. After the DB instance is created, you can view and manage it on the Instance Management page.

After the DB instance is created, the DB engine cannot be changed. Therefore, exercise caution when selecting a DB engine.

An automated backup policy is enabled by default. After the DB instance is created, you can modify this policy as required. An automated full backup is
immediately triggered after the DB instance is created.

The default database port is 3306. After the DB instance is created, you can change the port.

36 Huawei Confidential
Create - Connecting to an RDS DB Instance
Scenarios
 You can connect to and manage RDS DB instances using the DAS service or other database clients. By default, you have the
permissions required for remote login. It is recommended that you use the DAS service to connect to and manage DB
instances, which is more secure and convenient. You can also connect to RDS DB instances through a floating IP address or an
EIP.

 This page describes how to connect to an RDS DB instance using the DAS service. For details on how to connect to a DB
instance using a database client, see "Connecting to a DB Instance" in the Getting Started with RDS.

Procedure

6. After parameters are modified, click Change History to view parameter modification details.

41 Huawei Confidential
Rebooting a DB Instance
Scenarios
 You may need to reboot a DB instance during maintenance. For example, if a DB instance is abnormal, you can try rebooting
it to restore its status to Available. After modifying parameters, you may need to reboot the DB instance for the modifications
to take effect. You can reboot a primary DB instance or a read replica on the RDS console.

Procedure
1. Log in to the management console.
2. Select a region and a project.
3. Click Service List. Under Database, click Relational Database Service to go to the RDS console.
4. On the Instance Management page, locate the target DB instance or read replica and choose More > Reboot in the
Operation column.
5. If you have enabled operation protection, in the displayed dialog box, click Send Code, enter the obtained verification code,
and click OK. The page then automatically closes.
6. In the displayed dialog box, click OK.
7. Refresh the DB instance list and view the status of the DB instance. If its status is Available, it has been rebooted successfully.

42 Huawei Confidential
Deleting a Pay-per-Use DB Instance
Scenarios

FAQs (1)
1. What are the precautions when using RDS?
DB instance operating systems are invisible to users. Your applications can only see the
database IP address and port.
The backup files stored in OBS and the ECS where the RDS resides are invisible to users. They
are only visible to the RDS instance management system.
After buying an RDS DB instance, you do not need to perform basic database O&M operations,
such as configuring high availability or installing security patches, but you should:
 Check whether the vCPUs, IOPS, and storage space are sufficient. If any of them is
insufficient, change the DB instance class or scale up storage space.
 Check whether RDS DB instances have performance issues, whether there are a large number
of slow SQL statements, whether SQL statements need to be optimized, and whether there
are redundant or missing indexes.

44 Huawei Confidential
FAQs (2)
1. How many DB instances can run on RDS?
RDS has no limit on the number of running DB instances.

2. How can I create and connect to an ECS?

• Create an ECS in the same VPC as the DB instance to be connected.
• Configure security group rules to allow the ECS to connect to the DB instance through a floating IP
address.

3. Does RDS support cross-region migration?

Yes. You can use either of the following methods to migrate databases across regions:
• Use the DRS service to migrate databases across regions on the cloud.
• On the Instance Management page, click the target DB instance. On the displayed Basic Information
page, click Migrate Database in the upper right corner of the page.

45 Huawei Confidential
FAQs (3)
1. Is MySQL compatible with MariaDB?
• MariaDB is a community-developed, commercially supported fork of the MySQL relational database
management system (RDBMS), intended to remain free and open-source software under the GNU General
Public License (GPL). Development is led by some of the original developers of MySQL, who forked it due
to concerns over its acquisition by Oracle Corporation in 2009. MariaDB intended to maintain high
compatibility with MySQL, ensuring a drop-in replacement capability with MySQL APIs and commands.
MariaDB also provides many better new features. In terms of storage engine, XtraDB is used to replace
InnoDB of MySQL and is fully compatible with InnoDB. InnoDB tables will be converted to XtraDB by
default in MariaDB.
• MariaDB is compatible with MySQL in most aspects. There is no difference for front-end applications (such
as PHP, Perl, Python, Java, .NET, MyODBC, Ruby and MySQL C connector).

2. What is the maximum IOPS supported by RDS?

• The maximum IOPS supported by RDS depends on the I/O performance of EVS disks.
