We all have been there where you get to know the pain of restoring a database from backups makes you hate all databases in the world, which is most the time not as easy as backing it up. To make things worse when I wanted to find a way to backup / restore AWS RDS database like my on premise SQL Server, I couldn’t find a flawless way to do it. If you are like me, who wants to do it with the best way possible, this is for you.

Setting up for native backup and restore

To setup native backup for AWS RDS SQL Server, follow this steps we share you below.

To set up for native backup and restore, you need three components:

Give a name, description, engine and engine version. Here the engine should be the edition of your AWS SQL server instance. And the version should be same as the version you specified when you created the instance.

Now come back to RDS and select the newly created option group. Once the option group is created select it, and click on Add option.

Add option group to aws rds sql server

In the next screen Select the option “SQLSERVER_BACKUP_RESTORE” from the drop down list. It should be already selected.

create option group to database.

Down below, select the S3 bucket that you have created, Select “Yes” to “Apply immediately”. Then click “Add Option”.

You have to create a policy for the IAM Role: Backup-restore we have just created.

{
“Version”: “2012-10-17”,
“Statement”:
[
{
“Effect”: “Allow”,
“Action”:
[
“s3:ListBucket”,
“s3:GetBucketLocation”
],
“Resource”: “arn:aws:s3:::realworld-database”
},
{
“Effect”: “Allow”,
“Action”:
[
“s3:GetObjectAttributes”,
“s3:GetObject”,
“s3:PutObject”,
“s3:ListMultipartUploadParts”,
“s3:AbortMultipartUpload”
],
“Resource”: “arn:aws:s3:::realworld-database/*”
}
]
}

Create an iam role policy

Now go the Databases, select the database that you want to get restored from the S3 bucket. Click on “Modify” from the upper right corner.

The select apply immediately, to aplly the changes right now.

Now open up SQL Server Management Studio, Connect to your AWS RDS database instance and open a new query window.

Then Run this querys to backup / restore database:

SQL SERVER Query to backup the database:

exec msdb.dbo.rds_backup_database

               @source_db_name=’realworld’,

               @s3_arn_to_backup_to=’arn:aws:s3:::realworld/DataBase/backup.bak’,

               @number_of_files=1;

SQL SERVER Query to restore the database:

exec msdb.dbo.rds_restore_database

@restore_db_name=’realworld’,

@s3_arn_to_restore_from=’arn:aws:s3:::realworld/DataBase/backup.bak’;

SQL SERVER Query to verify if the task is running:

exec msdb.dbo.rds_task_status @db_name=’realworld’;

Tips for cyberattaks

Hardening of systems:

Hardening, in computing, translates into securing a system by limiting its surface of vulnerability; the more functions a system performs the more open it becomes and therefore, more vulnerable to possible attacks.

• Keep software& hardware up-to-date:

Software companies typically provide software updates for 3 reasons: to add new features, fix known bugs, and upgrade security.

Always update to the latest version of your software to protect yourself from new or existing security vulnerabilities.

• Patch Devices and antivirus:

You can significantly reduce your vulnerability by ensuring you have an anti-virus, at least one anti-malware installed on your computers, keep pathing and up to date your devices like PCs, Mobiles, Servers, Handhelds and tablets.

• Enable Multi-Factor authentication:

While having a strong password is the first step to secure your data; however, passwords will not be of any help in case of a keylogging attack. A key logger is used to monitor and record each keystroke typed on a specific computer’s keyboard. In case of such attacks, the strength of the password is made ineffective and it is easy for the attacker to steal your credentials. “Enabling a two-factor authentication helps in mitigating this risk to maximum extent possible,” assures Thapar.

• Backup your Data:

Important data can be lost as a result of a security breach. To make sure you’re prepared to restore data once it’s lost, you should ensure your important information is backed up frequently on the cloud or a local storage device.

Bonus Tip:

A business continuity plan (BCP) is a document that consists of the critical information an organization needs to continue operating during an unplanned event.

The BCP states the essential functions of the business, identifies which systems and processes must be sustained, and details how to maintain them. It should consider any possible business disruption.

Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. APIs act as the “front door” for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your backend services. Using API Gateway, you can create RESTful APIs and WebSocket APIs that enable real-time two-way communication applications. API Gateway supports containerized and serverless workloads, as well as web applications.

3 Benefits for your Business

Cost savings & Performance at scale

API Gateway provides a tiered pricing model for API requests. With an API Requests price as low as $0.90 per million requests at the highest tier, you can decrease your costs as your API usage increases per region across your AWS accounts.

Provide end users with the lowest possible latency for API requests and responses by taking advantage of our global network of edge locations using Amazon CloudFront. Throttle traffic and authorize API calls to ensure that backend operations withstand traffic spikes and backend systems are not unnecessarily called.

RESTful API options & Efficient API development

Create RESTful APIs using HTTP APIs or REST APIs. HTTP APIs are the best way to build APIs for a majority of use cases—they’re up to 71% cheaper than REST APIs. If your use case requires API proxy functionality and management features in a single solution, you can use REST APIs.

Run multiple versions of the same API simultaneously with API Gateway, allowing you to quickly iterate, test, and release new versions. You pay for calls made to your APIs and data transfer out and there are no minimum fees or upfront commitments.

Easy monitoring

Monitor performance metrics and information on API calls, data latency, and error rates from the API Gateway dashboard, which allows you to visually monitor calls to your services using Amazon CloudWatch.

What is Amazon Web Service Api Gateway?

Amazon API Gateway is an AWS service for creating, publishing, maintaining, monitoring, and securing REST, HTTP, and WebSocket APIs at any scale. API developers can create APIs that access AWS or other web services, as well as data stored in the AWS Cloud

. As an API Gateway API developer, you can create APIs for use in your own client applications. Or you can make your APIs available to third-party app developers. For more information, see Who uses API Gateway?.

API Gateway creates RESTful APIs that:

• Are HTTP-based.
• Enable stateless client-server communication.
• Implement standard HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE.

We are immersed in a global era in which technologies are part of our daily lives and within the business sector, they are considered a fundamental resource for the development of productive and economic processes that lead companies to renew their action model towards one more automated and improved.

However, by technological resources it is often thought that we refer to state-of-the-art machinery and devices, but in reality, it is even more than that because what companies are requiring today are specialized systems that adapt to their particular needs.

We are talking about ERPs, Enterprise Resource Planning for its acronym in English, which means Enterprise Resource Planning System. They are advanced technological solutions that help manage the daily activities of a company covering each of the areas (sales, accounting, supply chain, inventory, warehouse production, etc.).

An ERP system fulfills various functions: planning, predicting, controlling, budgeting, projecting business processes, which it manages to integrate from a single digital platform that provides a broad view of each action that is carried out and promotes an optimal flow between them.
