Amazon Redshift is announcing the general availability of Multi-AZ deployments for RA3 clusters in the Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and the Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD. Redshift Multi-AZ deployments support running your data warehouse in multiple Amazon Web Services Availability Zones (AZ) simultaneously and continue operating in unforeseen failure scenarios. A Multi-AZ deployment raises the Amazon Redshift Service Level Agreement (SLA) (Beijing|Ningxia) to 99.99% and delivers a highly available data warehouse for the most demanding mission-critical workloads.
Enterprise customers with mission critical workloads require a data warehouse with fast failover times and simplified operations that minimizes impact to applications. Redshift Multi-AZ deployment helps meet these demands by reducing recovery time and automatically recovering in another AZ during an unlikely event such as an AZ failure. A Redshift Multi-AZ data warehouse also maximizes query processing throughput by operating in multiple AZs and using compute resources from both AZs to process read and write queries.
Amazon Redshift Multi-AZ is now generally available for RA3 clusters through the Redshift Console, API and CLI, and in the Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and the Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD.
