Transparent Data Encryption and High Availability

Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) is an essential requirement for businesses handling sensitive data, whether personal or financial.

However, there are implications for backups and auto-failover. Without central storage of the encryption key with tight access controls, backups are useless and the server will not be able to start automatically after a failover.

The interaction between these components is not always intuitive. This paper is dedicated to clarifying these interactions.

Key highlights include:

• Overview of High Availability (HA) and TDE
• Operational challenges associated with running HA and TDE simultaneously
• Recommendations to be considered for both infrastructures
• Processes to be documented, tested, and rehearsed.
