Further Enhancing Production Database Scalability in DXP Cloud Services
- Management efficiency – Our solution simplifies the operation of hundreds, even thousands, of databases. It ensures all databases receive the necessary resources, driving optimal performance across various workloads.
- Auto-scaling – The system can intuitively allocate more resources during high-demand periods, maintaining high efficiency and responsiveness under fluctuating loads.
- Enhanced access security for SQL databases – We hardened technical controls to maintain confidentiality and integrity of customer data.
Q: How will this affect our live instances during the upgrade?
A: During the migration there will be a short downtime, on average it’s 3-5 minutes but can take a little longer depending on implementation.
Q: Why do some databases take longer to migrate?
A: Transient issues in cloud infrastructure, high database load and/or slow application initialization. There are multiple reasons that can have an impact. The vast majority just takes 3-5 minutes.
Q: Could any orders be lost during the migration window?
A: We recommend the maintenance page to prevent order loss.
Q: What happens to changes made in the CMS during the maintenance period?
A: Changes saved before the final step of the maintenance window will be saved.
Q: What happens to sessions and carts that are in the process of being converted into orders during checkout?
A: Orders will be accepted up to the final step when the database is migrated. Once migrated, the web app will be started again.
