Chapter 4. Deploy AWS Aurora in multiple availability zones
This topic describes how to deploy an Aurora regional deployment of a PostgreSQL instance across multiple availability zones to tolerate one or more availability zone failures in a given AWS region.
This deployment is intended to be used with the setup described in the Concepts for multi-site deployments chapter. Use this deployment with the other building blocks outlined in the Building blocks multi-site deployments chapter.
We provide these blueprints to show a minimal functionally complete example with a good baseline performance for regular installations. You would still need to adapt it to your environment and your organization’s standards and security best practices.
4.1. Architecture
Aurora database clusters consist of multiple Aurora database instances, with one instance designated as the primary writer and all others as backup readers. To ensure high availability in the event of availability zone failures, Aurora allows database instances to be deployed across multiple zones in a single AWS region. In the event of a failure on the availability zone that is hosting the Primary database instance, Aurora automatically heals itself and promotes a reader instance from a non-failed availability zone to be the new writer instance.
Figure 4.1. Aurora Multiple Availability Zone Deployment
See the AWS Aurora documentation for more details on the semantics provided by Aurora databases.
This documentation follows AWS best practices and creates a private Aurora database that is not exposed to the Internet. To access the database from a ROSA cluster, establish a peering connection between the database and the ROSA cluster.
4.2. Procedure
The following procedure contains two sections:
- Creation of an Aurora Multi-AZ database cluster with the name "keycloak-aurora" in eu-west-1.
- Creation of a peering connection between the ROSA cluster(s) and the Aurora VPC to allow applications deployed on the ROSA clusters to establish connections with the database.
4.2.1. Create Aurora database Cluster
Create a VPC for the Aurora cluster
Command:
aws ec2 create-vpc \ --cidr-block 192.168.0.0/16 \ --tag-specifications "ResourceType=vpc, Tags=[{Key=AuroraCluster,Value=keycloak-aurora}]" \1 --region eu-west-1
- 1
- We add an optional tag with the name of the Aurora cluster so that we can easily retrieve the VPC.
Output:
{ "Vpc": { "CidrBlock": "192.168.0.0/16", "DhcpOptionsId": "dopt-0bae7798158bc344f", "State": "pending", "VpcId": "vpc-0b40bd7c59dbe4277", "OwnerId": "606671647913", "InstanceTenancy": "default", "Ipv6CidrBlockAssociationSet": [], "CidrBlockAssociationSet": [ { "AssociationId": "vpc-cidr-assoc-09a02a83059ba5ab6", "CidrBlock": "192.168.0.0/16", "CidrBlockState": { "State": "associated" } } ], "IsDefault": false } }
Create a subnet for each availability zone that Aurora will be deployed to, using the
VpcId
of the newly created VPC.NoteThe cidr-block range specified for each of the availability zones must not overlap.

4.3. Verifying the connection
The simplest way to verify that a connection is possible between a ROSA cluster and an Aurora DB cluster is to deploy psql
on the Openshift cluster and attempt to connect to the writer endpoint.
The following command creates a pod in the default namespace and establishes a psql
connection with the Aurora cluster if possible. Upon exiting the pod shell, the pod is deleted.
USER=keycloak 1 PASSWORD=secret99 2 DATABASE=keycloak 3 HOST=$(aws rds describe-db-clusters \ --db-cluster-identifier keycloak-aurora \4 --query 'DBClusters[*].Endpoint' \ --region eu-west-1 \ --output text ) oc run -i --tty --rm debug --image=postgres:15 --restart=Never -- psql postgresql://${USER}:${PASSWORD}@${HOST}/${DATABASE}
4.4. Connecting Aurora database with Red Hat build of Keycloak
Now that an Aurora database has been established and linked with all of your ROSA clusters, here are the relevant Red Hat build of Keycloak CR options to connect the Aurora database with Red Hat build of Keycloak. These changes will be required in the Deploy Red Hat build of Keycloak for HA with the Red Hat build of Keycloak Operator chapter. The JDBC url is configured to use the Aurora database writer endpoint.
-
Update
spec.db.url
to bejdbc:aws-wrapper:postgresql://$HOST:5432/keycloak
where$HOST
is the Aurora writer endpoint URL. -
Ensure that the Secrets referenced by
spec.db.usernameSecret
andspec.db.passwordSecret
contain usernames and passwords defined when creating Aurora.
4.5. Next steps
After successful deployment of the Aurora database continue with Deploy Data Grid for HA with the Data Grid Operator
