An Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service) instance is a managed database service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. An RDS instance is a fully managed database that runs on a virtual machine, and can be accessed remotely over the internet or a private network.
RDS supports several popular database engines including:
MySQL
PostgreSQL
Oracle
Microsoft SQL Server
Amazon Aurora
RDS provides features such as automatic backups, automatic software patching, automatic failure detection and recovery, and can scale the underlying hardware resources as needed. This allows developers and administrators to focus on developing and managing their applications rather than worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
An RDS instance can be created, modified, and deleted through the AWS Management Console, the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or the AWS SDKs and APIs.
The main benefit of using RDS is that it abstracts away many of the operational complexities of running a relational database, allowing developers to easily launch and manage a production-ready database with minimal setup and administration.
