Amazon Web Services: Data, RDS & Analytics

Where your data lives decides how fast you can use it and what it costs to keep.

Right Database, Right Job

Reports are slow, your database struggles at busy times, or data sits where your team can’t query it. AWS offers plenty of services for this, including RDS, Aurora, DynamoDB, Redshift and S3, which makes choosing the hard part.

We design data architectures that use the right service for each job. Your data stays reliable, performs well and is easy to query.

An S3 data lake, one central store for raw data

Redshift and Athena set up for your analytics

How We Design Data

1

Study Access

We look at how your applications read and write data before picking a database.

2

Choose Services

Aurora suits most production workloads, RDS suits simpler ones, and DynamoDB suits high-scale work with predictable access patterns.

3

Lay Out Storage

For analytics, we design S3 storage layout, partitioning and catalog to keep queries fast and costs low.

4

Migrate Data

AWS Database Migration Service and related tools move on-premises databases across with minimal downtime.

Why Choose System Strats

We run real AWS production workloads across compute, data and serverless, and we know where the platform’s traps live. With data, we model carefully before committing, because the wrong database is costly to undo.

Frequently Asked Questions

For most production workloads, Aurora. It’s typically faster, more resilient and scales better, at a slightly higher cost. RDS still has its place for simpler use cases.

Use it for high-scale, low-latency workloads with predictable access patterns. It won’t drop in as a replacement for a relational database, so we model carefully before committing.

S3-based data lakes with Athena or Redshift Spectrum work well for most analytics workloads. We design the storage layout, partitioning and catalog to keep queries fast and costs low.

Yes. We use AWS Database Migration Service and related tools to move Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL databases with minimal downtime.
