Description

A fully managed, highly available database proxy for Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)

Main information

Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) provides cost-efficient and resizable capacity while automating time-consuming administration tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backups. Amazon RDS Proxy sits between your application and your relational database to efficiently manage connections to the database and improve the scalability of the application. By pooling and sharing already established database connections, RDS Proxy allows you to efficiently scale to many more connections from your serverless application. RDS Proxy also enables you to maintain predictable database performance by controlling the total number of database connections that are opened. Finally, RDS Proxy preserves the availability of your serverless application by denying unserviceable application connections that may degrade the performance of your database.

Use cases
Description
Serverless application development
With Amazon RDS Proxy you can build serverless applications that are more scalable and more available because they use your relational databases more efficiently.
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and eCommerce applications
Instead of over-provisioning your database to support mostly idling connections, you can use RDS Proxy to hold idling connections from your application while only establishing database connections as required to optimally serve active requests.
