It is recommended to keep and work within the pre-configured SQData instance provided in the AMI. See SQData instance reference for some configuration specifics. Experts that decide to make changes to the instance, should be careful to make related changes such as updates to environment variables to avoid complications.
When the replication service was initialized, a user named “connect” was automatically created and given ownership of the SQData instance with admin privileges. Use this user to define and manage SQData replication pipelines that entail:
- defining a unique apply engine with corresponding script job
- starting/stopping the engine as required via the daemon controller service (sqdaemon)
