Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and
scale a relational database in the
cloud. It provides cost-efficient and resizable capacity while automating
time-consuming administration tasks such as
hardware provisioning, database setup, patching and backups. It frees you to focus
on your applications so you can give
them the fast performance, high availability, security and compatibility they
need.
Amazon RDS is available on several database instance types - optimized for memory,
performance or I/O - and provides you
with six familiar database engines to choose from, including Amazon Aurora,
PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle Database,
and SQL Server. You can use the AWS Database Migration Service to easily migrate or
replicate your existing databases to
Amazon RDS.
