]]> Comment on WordPress on Amazon RDS by David Bullock http://www.ringofblogs.com/2009/10/29/wordpress-on-amazon-rds/comment-page-1/#comment-60057 David Bullock Sat, 09 Jul 2011 18:43:54 +0000 http://www.ringofblogs.com/?p=284#comment-60057 I'm working currently on a fairly large Wordpress install using Amazon RDS and EC2 for one of my clients. One of the issues I ran into fairly early on when first working with RDS is that the installation specific global settings aren't adjustable through the standard SQL interface, and many of them aren't preconfigured in useful manner. A big one for us of course was the Query Cache. Another one to look out for is the timezone. Instead you need to create a parameter group, which you can do through the Amazon Web Console. Once you have the parameter group, you can use the Amazon RDS command line tools to modify your parameters and choose when those parameters are applied (i.e. immediately, after-reboot, etc.) Setting up the RDS CLI tools is a bit clunky and it's odd that as simple as the operations are, that you can't execute them through the web interface. Also keep in mind that an advantage of EC2 over most VPS is rapid deployment to support scaling. I can bring up an additional copy to share load in another 5 minutes and add it to the load balancer immediately. Similarly I can setup multiple RDS instances both for redundany, and for use with something like HyperDB to support additional scaling. - Dave I’m working currently on a fairly large WordPress install using Amazon RDS and EC2 for one of my clients.
