Lead Analyst

This is a great way to use a relational DBMS without managing it , it is a great experience using this service.

Senior Software Engineer

The security management is really good, we can set all types of security managements like, subnet, security group, VPC, IAM role etc, which will take a lot of effort if gone manually.

Tech Support

Not much that I can provide as dislike for this server.

Senior Software Developer

Since it's not a self-hosted service, there are some low level features that are missing.

What I like about RDS is the variety of database options from both a hardware and software standpoint. In addition, it's easy to have a database stood up within 10 to 15 minutes.

Software Engineer

Supports lots of Amazon cloud service options and third-party programs and APIs. Strong emphasis on securing server instances.

Amazon RDS has worked really well for us for our cloud DB solution. It's pretty intuitive and easy to use, and you can choose exactly what instances sizes, storage sizes, etc. you want.

Easy to create, configure and manage relational databases through the web console. Integration with our application is seamless.

The greatest feature of Amazon RDS like other aws services is auto-scaling and automatically backups. It takes away the burden of having to monitor the databases for performance.

Software Developer

The pricing is good and even a person starting out his website or server can use this to maintain 100% uptime of his database.

RDS in particular is quite easy to set up (at least in the basics) and it is very fast and reliable.

It's very hard to get started. UI is extremely bloated and near impossible to navigate if you don't know what you're looking for.

Principal software engineer

The main issue is that metrics collected  manually will never meet AWS metrics which are used to bill your stack. And of course AWS point of view will be much costly.

Senior Application Developer

If someone is building their software and does not want to manage their DB and not concerned about how it is getting managed then this is the best option in market.

Programmer

Great technical support. You almost don't need to mind at any configuration or database servers anymore.

Overall Amazon RDS is a pretty good solution, but it does come with its own problems like pricing and performance especially when compared to opensource NoSql solutions.

My overall experience with Amazon RDS has nothing but been amazing with the great customer support that they offer and consideration they provide for minor mistakes performed at our end.

No complex configuration needed, all security and control access is mostly already handled.

Microsoft SQL Server

MariaDB

In general, this software is really good and efficient, you could do many things and your information is safe.

We have been using RDS for about 6 years, we have just a few issues (with always a fast response/solution)

Great performance and fast support

Prefer Mongo or DocumentDB but if I must use an RDBMS

My experience with Amazon RDS was great because i could easily establish remote connection to it. It was fast the data retrieval was fast, it is reliable and it is not expansive for what it is providing.

Ámazon RDS is a great option if you need a remote database

Overall my experience with RDS has been a good one. It's great for a small business looking to scale in the future. 

Enterprise database without the hardware

Our primary datastores are kept encrypted and secure in RDS, and scale out to several areas without a hitch.

Amazon RDS review

Robust managed database solution

My team uses Amazon RDS to host an SQL database for machine learning applications that receives live updates. The server has proven reliable both for testing and development where we used different packages/clients to connect as well as in production.

As we may deal with personal information the access control was very important for us and the ability to have multi-factor authentication as a base service rather than a premium service was a deciding factor while choosing this product.

Reliable service that encompasses your needs; safety included

Amazon RDS is top tier, great product and great support.

Amazon RDS is a great solution for managing multiple databases

Amazon Web Services RDS - excellently fully managed database services

Amazon for Buisness

Worth every penny

Overall Amazon RDS is a pretty good solution, but it does come with its own problems like pricing and performance especially when compared to opensource NoSql solutions

RDS is just a necessity

Everything with Amazon RDS is smooth and effortless.

ARDS review

Amazon RDS is a service that delivers what it promises: a database service that combines simplicity and robust management of your database along with the flexibility of a cloud tool. However, it is a recommended service for small and medium-sized businesses because of the complexity of managing big dates.
