AWS DevOps Agent + Database Insights: Detect, Diagnose, and Resolve Database Issues

Join us for a 60-minute live session exploring how AWS DevOps Agent and CloudWatch Database Insights can work together to fundamentally shift your database operations from reactive incident response to proactive, automated management.

Through real-time demonstrations against various RDS and Aurora workloads, you'll walk away with practical knowledge for detecting performance anomalies early, diagnosing root causes faster, and automating common remediation steps.

What you'll learn:

• Build custom DevOps Agent skills that can detect and offer remediation for database issues such as runaway queries, connection saturation, and query degradation.
• Use Database Insights to trace performance issues down to individual queries, execution plans, and lock contention patterns with DevOps Agent.
• Use CloudWatch alarms to automatically trigger DevOps Agent skills in order to decrease MTTR

Session Highlights:

• Live incident simulation: Watch a real Aurora PostgreSQL performance degradation unfold, get diagnosed, and get resolved end-to-end
• Custom skill demo: See DevOps Agent execute and diagnose RDS/Aurora database issues in real time

Target Audience:

DBAs, SREs, DevOps engineers, and platform teams who manage production databases on AWS. Basic familiarity with Amazon RDS or Aurora is helpful but not required.
