Only the thing i dislike about AWS is naming of its services its not easier to find a service related to a particular search and naming its terms .

like example suppose S3 any new fresher wont be able to identify it as a storage service and the related term bucket it should have something named related to storage.

like other services like lightsail we wont know it is severless if you are a fresher. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is truly a very flexible, powerful, scalable and full of features as AWS claims. I have using the service, including many others, in my organization since I joined, and it has served many production use -cases quite efficiently.

The best thing about Amazon RDS is it's combination of simplicity and power. Be the intuitive design on the console or the powerful CLI commands which were able to automate everything that I liked and wanted, this database is a great option for anyone looking either to migrate their on-premises databases, or choose a cloud database.

The ability AWS provides regarding scaling to up or down sizes on -demans is very good, which not only helps to meet the live customer API calls, but also helps us to manage and reduce our cost.

Even though we utilised the RDS for MySQL, MS SQL and PostGre SQL, the integration with other databases like MariaDB and more is quite appreciative, that enables us to work on projects for some customers using unconventional databases too.

I also loved the ease of connecting it to an EC2 instances whole creating the database itself, and how AWS manages many things automatically. Also, the option of managing the database credentials using Systems Manager for safety and security purpose, and ensuring nothing goes leaked is a very amazing feature as well.

I don't feel something too strong to dislike about Amazon RDS, but there are certain things where improvements can surely happen. One of them and what I feel, most important, is the proper integration of RDS databases to other identity providers like Microsoft Entra, Okta etc. If the credentials can totally be removed using this seamless integration, then it will truly complete even further use cases, and Excel on the security side better.

Also, Amazon RDS can fasten the application of patches/updates on our database as soon as they are released, so that we are always ahead in the update race as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's vast size of data storage and customer support. No chance of data lost and mismatch till now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's costing and pricing which is quite expensive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1:-Time-efficient and easy to use from making an Instance to maintaining it.

2:- Worldwide access and support to Grow.

3:- Daily usage and implementation are easy.

4:- Very much secure in terms of security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1:- Sometimes Interface is a bit confusing.

2:- You have to monitor the instance for excess running time which will cost much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I guess Postgres is the one which is way more helpful and trendy these days especially using libraries for distance and geo spatial data support with Relational database advantages of Joins and Aggregate functions it is really good without any headache of having to maintain the server.

I would say cost for few people who wants to have a POC kindof project it is very easy and goto service like DynamoDB but because of Cost RDS is kindof neglected because using EC2 if we host postgre rds it would be much cheaper Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about RDS is how easy it makes managing databases. It take care of all the boring stuffs like backups, patching, and scaling so we can focus on actually using the database. The performance is great to, and I love that I can choose from different database engines like MySQL or PostgreSQL. It's also nice that it integrates seamlessly with other AWS services, which makes my life alot easier when building apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While RDS is mostly great, it can get prety expensive if your not carefull. The pricing model is kinda complicated, and it's easy to rack up costs if you don't keep an eye on things. Also, some of the more advanced features are only available on certain instance types, which can be frustrating. Sometimes I wish there was more flexibility in terms of customizing the underlying OS or accessing the database files directly, but I guess thats the trade off for the managed service.

Best thing about Amazon RDS is its ability to automate time-consuming database management tasks like backups, scaling, and patching,and easy to use. The service offers high availability with Multi-AZ deployments, ensuring minimal downtime. Additionally, RDS supports multiple database engines, providing flexibility for different project needs, all while seamlessly integrating with other AWS services for monitoring and security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Diwlike thing about Amazon RDS is that while it's highly automated, it can be less flexible for custom configurations compared to managing databases on your own. The pricing can also add up quickly, especially for large-scale deployments or when using Multi-AZ for high availability. Additionally, troubleshooting complex performance issues can be challenging without deeper access to the underlying infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the user-friendly console and its services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

in that cloud formation designer we have to add parameters manually Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was struggling to manage my DB , and thats where RDS cane in, the setup was done very quickly and to add to it the interface was very user friendly and easy to understand. The best part about RDS was I could scale up and down whenever needed.

I found RDS to be very secure and reliable , which made me stop worrying about the data loss and downtimes I faced before using RDS.

Despite aws being a big thing their customer support is still on point , they respond within SLA and helped me resolve my issues.

I also tried integrating it with my EC2 instance which was done in a flash due to its user friendly console. Another good part being it also supports high , meduim and low frequency usages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There arent many things to dislike since mine was a small Db but if i happen to host a large Db on rds it can get costly , and another point being i faced a bit of latecy while using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
