Case Study: Leading Cloud-based Video Surveillance Solutions Providing Company achieves high availability and scalability on AWS with DatAvail

Cloud-based Video Surveillance Solutions Organization Spies the AWS Cloud to Support HA & Scalability

Leading Cloud-based Video Surveillance Solutions Providing Company engaged DatAvail after its on‑premise infrastructure became expensive to manage and hit resource limits, causing capacity‑planning problems, delayed provisioning, and an inability to scale for incoming data growth while needing to migrate terabytes of data to AWS. DatAvail’s MySQL team recommended a cloud strategy using AWS RDS (RDS MySQL and Aurora MySQL), MySQL 5.6/5.7 upgrades, and tools such as Xtrabackup, S3 and native MySQL replication to address those challenges.

DatAvail implemented capacity planning and migrated databases to AWS, modernizing some workloads to RDS MySQL and Aurora MySQL and upgrading to MySQL 5.7.x while moving terabytes of data via Xtrabackup/S3 and replication. As a result the customer can provision resources on demand with built‑in high availability and scalability, perform version upgrades with minimal downtime using snapshots and read‑replicas, and benefit from faster deployments, automatic failover, improved storage performance and the ability to auto‑scale.
