"Amazon Aurora provides high availability, outstanding overall performance, and seamless scalability."
Product Reviewed: Amazon Aurora
What do you like best about Amazon Aurora?

I have been the usage of Amazon Aurora for our business enterprise's relational database dreams for the beyond 12 months, and it's been a game-changer. One of Aurora’s precise capabilities is its huge and dense presence. Automated backups, continuous snapshots, and multi-AZ deployments ensure that our statistics are continually blanketed.

The average development in overall performance that we’ve seen is terrific. The Aurora could be a very fast, way to go with its precise structure that separates the garage from the electronics. We noticed a considerable discount in query hiding, which significantly advanced the responsiveness of our programs.

Another key benefit of Aurora is scalability. We can easily scale our database instances up or down based totally on our needs absolutely without downtime. This flexibility has been important in dealing with payments at the same time as maintaining productivity.

Another advantage is that MySQL and PostgreSQL compatibility made the migration seamless. We were able to migrate our cutting-edge databases to Aurora with minimum changes to our configurations.

Cloud Integrating with other AWS offerings like Lambda, S3, and CloudWatch has simplified our strategies. Managing and dealing with our databases has come to be an awful lot greener with advanced metrics and signs of the use of Aurora.

In precis, Amazon Aurora has provided us with robust, excessive-looking, and scalable database responsiveness that makes our enterprise operations more acceptable. I could especially suggest it to any organization seeking out a relational database server that is fairly reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive and Reliable Database Management with Amazon RDS: A Balanced Perspective"
What do you like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

What I like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is its ability to simplify the management of relational databases with automated backups, scaling, and maintenance. This allows users to focus on application development without worrying about the underlying database infrastructure. The seamless integration with other AWS services and robust security features further enhance its appeal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

What I dislike about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is the potential for high costs, especially with large-scale deployments and additional features like read replicas and Multi-AZ configurations. Additionally, the limited customization options can be a drawback for those who need deep control over their database environment, and the complexity of managing multi-region deployments can be challenging. The risk of vendor lock-in is also a concern, making it difficult to migrate to other services in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazon Aurora: One of the best cloud native DB"
Product Reviewed: Amazon Aurora
What do you like best about Amazon Aurora?

The seemless compatibility of Amazon Aurora with traditional DBs like MySQL and PostgreSQL is just phenomenonal. I or my team had not have to compromise on high performance, security or the reliability while integrating our systems and data with the product. Fully managed services from Aurora takes off all the DB management burden and let's the user focus more on the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Aurora?

Since the technology is relatively newer, the proprietary nature and not much support available for it in general audience makes it a little tricky to be used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

The ease of use to just provision the service, and focus on your code. the Implementation is very easy. You can enable number of features and extentions by just one click. The managed service, all the care is from AWS side, you just focus on the queries. You just use the connection string with password, which means easy integration.

What do you dislike about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

There are many plus points but for the negative side, you can consider the costing and some other very low side dislike points like when you are using the networking, you should be able to have prpoer idea of networking etc. The update sometimes also takes high time.

"Managed Cloud database By Amazon"
What do you like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

It has been 3 years of using the RDS Service, the best feature which I like is the autoscaling without any operational overhead.

As the traffic increases service will sacled up and then become on lower once traffic lows by this way the costing is pay as you go.

Huge metrics will be helpful in deciding the least configuration and How much sacling is required.

MIgration from on-permises server to AWS RDS was awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

Costing is somehow complex and expensive. Also some time when large no. of traffic on the server and performing the continuos querying with the Database will not given the point to autoscale that hand traffic due to which server gone away error will face. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
