Amazon Aurora, AWS’s MySQL-compatible relational database engine, is as simple and cost-effective to use as any open-source database, yet still matches the speed and power of any commercial one.
As one’s databases grow, security becomes even more of a priority. To that end, AWS has made it easier to encrypt data stored in Aurora.
Known as “encryption at rest”, this feature lets you choose either an AWS or customer-managed key from the AWS Key Management System. The encryption is then applied to data, backups, logs, replicas, snapshots, and any data in transit.
Find out more about encryption at rest at the official documentation. If you want to get your enterprises started with the cloud databases, contact our PolarSeven cloud experts today.
