Getting started with High Performance Networking

To set up High Performance Networking

1. Step 1: Create an Oracle Database@AWS Network

   Note

   High Performance Networking is not currently available in these Availability Zones. When you create an ODB network in an AZ where this capability is not available, the API will create the ODB network without a placement group. The get response will include a status reason saying the placement groups are not supported in this AZ.

   Create an Oracle Database@AWS network using the AWS Management Console or the AWS CLI. A placement group is automatically created and associated with your ODB network.

   AWS CLI example:

   aws odb create-odb-network \
     --display-name value \
     --availability-zone value

2. Step 2: Retrieve the placement group ID

   After creating your ODB network, retrieve the placement group ID using the GetODBNetwork API or from the Oracle Database@AWS console.

   AWS CLI example:

   aws odb get-odb-network --odb-network-id odb-network-id

   Sample response:

   {
     "odbNetwork": {
       "availabilityZone": "us-east-2a",
       "availabilityZoneId": "use2-az1",
       "ec2PlacementGroupId": "pg-017f45f602aba9085",
       "backupSubnetCidr": "[IP_ADDRESS]"
     }
   }

3. Step 3: Launch Amazon EC2 Instances Using the placement group

   When launching Amazon EC2 instances for your application, specify the placement group ID retrieved in Step 2. This ensures your instances are placed in close proximity to your Oracle Database@AWS database for optimal latency.

   AWS CLI example:

   aws ec2 run-instances \
     --placement GroupId=pg-017f45f602aba9085 \
     [other parameters]

   You can also specify the placement group when launching instances through the AWS Management Console under Advanced Details > placement group.

4. Step 4 (Recommended): Use On-Demand Capacity Reservations

   Amazon EC2 On-Demand capacity is subject to availability. To ensure high availability of capacity for your latency-sensitive workloads, we recommend using Amazon EC2 On-Demand Capacity Reservations (ODCR) with the Oracle Database@AWS placement group.
