"The World's most trusted database but a little complicated to understand"
What do you like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

The thing I genuinely like about Amazon RDS is that I can trust it. It's completely secure and I can even assure my clients without any hesitation to incorporate it in their application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I feel that Amazon RDS is not that simple. A tech geek can understand it but someone who is not very well-verse in IT may have a difficult time comprehending it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The best feature of Amazon's Relational Database Service (RDS) for me is its automated management of tasks like backups, software patching, and scaling. This allows me to focus on developing applications without worrying about the underlying database infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The worst feature of Amazon RDS, in my experience, is the limited control over the underlying database server, which can restrict certain custom configurations and optimizations. This can be frustrating when I need more granular control for specific use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aurora is a great fit for dbs and enterprise level dbs that require high availability and seamless automated backups , a highly recommended option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Aurora?

The fact that it doesn't directly support nosql , rather through the json option is a bit lagging behind but the high availability and automated backups makes it negligible Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"RDS works well, but it has periodic performance issues and needs to be managed in terms of cost."
What do you like best about Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)?

By managing backups, scalability, and maintenance for different engines like MySQL and PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS streamlines database administration. Via Multi-AZ deployments, it provides high availability, guarantees strong security, and connects easily with AWS services. Scalable and reliable cloud relational databases are ideal for CloudWatch monitoring as it maximizes performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Due to its complex pricing structure, which includes additional fees for capabilities like data transport and Multi-AZ installations, Amazon RDS can be difficult to use. Although it makes maintenance easier, it could not have the same flexibility as databases that are self-managed. Sometimes users experience delays in feature upgrades or performance problems.
