Amazon RDS for Oracle now supports Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) and Oracle Label Security (OLS) option with Oracle Multitenant configuration. OEM enables monitoring and managing the Oracle infrastructure from a single console. OLS provides fine-grained control of access to individual tables or rows, and helps you enforce regulatory compliance with a policy-based administration.

To enable OEM on your Amazon RDS for Oracle database instance with multitenant configuration, you can add an option to a new or existing option group. You can use OEM option for OEM Database Express for a lightweight tool for managing a single database instance, or OEM_AGENT for OEM Cloud Control for an enterprise-level tool for managing a large environment. To learn more about enabling OEM, please refer to Amazon RDS for Oracle documentation .

To enable the OLS option on your Amazon RDS for Oracle database instance with multitenant configuration, you can add the option to a new or existing option group. In order to use the OLS option, you need to have a valid Oracle Label Security option license, in addition to an Oracle Enterprise Edition license with “Software Update License & Support”. To learn more about enabling OLS, please refer to Amazon RDS for Oracle documentation .

Amazon RDS for Oracle allows you to set up, operate, and scale Oracle database deployments in the cloud. See Amazon RDS for Oracle Pricing for up-to-date pricing and regional availability.

Today AWS Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB) is launching a new capability that allows you to align the TCP idle timeout value of GWLB with clients and target appliances. Using this capability you can now perform uninterrupted stateful inspection and fine tuning of the applications that use long-lived flows, such as financial applications, databases and ERP systems, when using GWLB.

Prior to this launch, TCP idle timeout was a fixed value of 350 seconds, which could interrupt long-lived traffic flows of some applications. With this launch, you now have the flexibility to configure GWLB’s TCP idle timeout to be a value between 60 seconds and 6000 seconds, with the default remaining at 350 seconds for backward compatibility. This configuration can help reduce interruptions in traffic flows by maintaining target stickiness for the optimal duration based on the needs of your application. You can configure the TCP idle timeout value using the ‘tcp.idle_timeout.seconds’ listener attribute on your existing and newly created GWLBs.

This capability is available in all AWS commercial and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.

For more information on how to use this feature, see this AWS blog post and product documentation .
