Amazon RDS

Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is a fully managed cloud database service that eliminates the complexity of database administration while providing enterprise-grade performance and reliability. With support for eight database engines including Amazon Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, and Oracle, RDS gives you the flexibility to choose the right database for your application needs.

Key advantages include:

• Automated management - Handles provisioning, patching, backup, and recovery automatically
• High availability - Multi-AZ deployments with automatic failover for business continuity
• Scalable performance - Scale compute and storage resources up or down based on demand
• Cost optimization - Pay only for what you use with flexible pricing options
• Security built-in - Network isolation, encryption at rest and in transit, and compliance certifications

Perfect for web and mobile applications that need reliable data storage, enterprise migrations from legacy databases, and analytics workloads with zero-ETL integrations to Amazon Redshift. RDS removes the operational burden of database management so you can focus on building great applications instead of managing infrastructure.
