Managing an Amazon Aurora global database - Amazon Aurora

Managing an Amazon Aurora global database

You perform most management operations on the individual clusters that make up an Aurora global database. When you choose Group related resources on the Databases page in the console, you see the primary cluster and secondary clusters grouped under the associated global database. To find the AWS Regions where a global database's DB clusters are running, its Aurora DB engine and version, and its identifier, use its Configuration tab.

The cross-Region database failover processes are available to Aurora global databases only, not for a single Aurora DB cluster. To learn more, see Using switchover or failover in Amazon Aurora Global Database.

To recover an Aurora global database from an unplanned outage in its primary Region, see Recovering an Amazon Aurora global database from an unplanned outage.
