Creates an Amazon DocumentDB global cluster that can span multiple multiple Amazon Web Services Regions. The global cluster contains one primary cluster with read-write capability, and up-to 10 read-only secondary clusters. Global clusters uses storage-based fast replication across regions with latencies less than one second, using dedicated infrastructure with no impact to your workload’s performance.

You can create a global cluster that is initially empty, and then add a primary and a secondary to it. Or you can specify an existing cluster during the create operation, and this cluster becomes the primary of the global cluster.

Promotes the specified secondary DB cluster to be the primary DB cluster in the global cluster when failing over a global cluster occurs.

Use this operation to respond to an unplanned event, such as a regional disaster in the primary region. Failing over can result in a loss of write transaction data that wasn't replicated to the chosen secondary before the failover event occurred. However, the recovery process that promotes a DB instance on the chosen seconday DB cluster to be the primary writer DB instance guarantees that the data is in a transactionally consistent state.

Request Syntax

client.switchover_global_cluster(
    GlobalClusterIdentifier='string',
    TargetDbClusterIdentifier='string'
)
type GlobalClusterIdentifier:

string

param GlobalClusterIdentifier:

[REQUIRED]

The identifier of the Amazon DocumentDB global database cluster to switch over. The identifier is the unique key assigned by the user when the cluster is created. In other words, it's the name of the global cluster. This parameter isn’t case-sensitive.

Constraints:

  • Must match the identifier of an existing global cluster (Amazon DocumentDB global database).

  • Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.

Pattern: [A-Za-z][0-9A-Za-z-:._]*

type TargetDbClusterIdentifier:

string

param TargetDbClusterIdentifier:

[REQUIRED]

The identifier of the secondary Amazon DocumentDB cluster to promote to the new primary for the global database cluster. Use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the identifier so that Amazon DocumentDB can locate the cluster in its Amazon Web Services region.

Constraints:

  • Must match the identifier of an existing secondary cluster.

  • Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.

Pattern: [A-Za-z][0-9A-Za-z-:._]*
