Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus is a new edition of Google Cloud’s managed database service, designed for running MySQL and PostgreSQL workloads. It offers several enhancements focused on higher performance, availability, and data protection.
For MySQL workloads, Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus delivers accelerated read and write performance through software optimizations, improved machine types and configurations, and an integrated SSD-backed data cache option. Compared to the current Cloud SQL offering, it provides up to 3x higher read throughput and up to a 2x improvement in write latency. It also offers near-zero downtime for planned maintenance operations and includes a 99.99% availability SLA (Service Level Agreement) inclusive of maintenance. Data protection capabilities are enhanced with 35 days of log retention.
Exploring the innovations in Enterprise Plus for MySQL
Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus for PostgreSQL also provides improved write throughput, offering up to 2x better performance compared to the Enterprise edition. It shares the same availability, reliability, and data protection enhancements as the MySQL edition.
The existing version of Cloud SQL, which remains unchanged in terms of features and pricing, is now referred to as Cloud SQL Enterprise edition.
The Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition has received positive feedback from early adopters. Everflow Technologies, a company utilizing the Data Cache feature, reported more than 3x improvement in query performance for clients running intensive reports on their platform. Workday, a provider of cloud-based services, expressed satisfaction with the high-performance database and the benefits of Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus for their demanding workloads. Salesloft, another adopter, experienced a 2x improvement in sustained performance (TPS and query latency) with Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus for PostgreSQL.
It’s important to be able to offer great user experience to our customers and as we moved to the public cloud, it was clear that we needed a high-performance database to support our requirements. We worked closely with the Google Cloud team to invest in Cloud SQL improvements and with the launch of the Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition, we now have options for high performance and availability for our most demanding Workday workloads, leveraging the higher read and write performance, higher availability, and minimal planned downtime.
Enterprise Plus for PostgreSQL
Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus provides optimized configurations, performance improvements, increased availability, and enhanced data protection, making it an attractive choice for organizations with demanding database workloads.
All of the availability, reliability and data protection enhancements mentioned for MySQL, are also available with Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus for PostgreSQL: a 99.99% availability SLA inclusive of maintenance, reduced planned downtime of less than 10 seconds, and a higher level of data protection with 35 days of log retention.
