Any one used: Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), as backend MySQL DB for Jira or Confluence?

Gavin Fowler

Hi I'm using Jira (4.3.3) / confluence (3.5.5) and I am considering deploying these installations into the Amazon cloud (AWS EC2) and away from my data centre. If I deploy to the cloud (EC2 AMI), I'm also thinking of using Relational Database Services (RDS). I'm wondering if anyone has any real life experience of this with either Jira / Confluence??

Thanks

Gavin.

Hi Gavin,

We use the same setup for our internal production instances, working fine I have to say!
Just take your time to construct a good setup, especially when a high uptime is necessary - a passive replicated service in an other zone/region might be something to keep in mind.

The RDS itself is a very pretty solution and we didn't encounter any database specific errors with our Atlassian tools.

Tom

No issues with our deployment as well (JIRA 5.0.3). The setup is similar to using a standard MySQL server.

So when moving an existing Jira/Confluence to Amazon EC2 / RDS what are the timezone considerations?

RDS only operates in UTC time, so I assume I would run my EC2 Jira/Confluence instance in my timezone and not UTC?

Oh, good question. Does anyone have an answer?
