What is Amazon Aurora?
Amazon Aurora is a MySQL-compatible relational database built for the cloud that combines the performance and availability of traditional enterprise databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases.
Why Use Amazon Aurora?
With Amazon Aurora, you can benefit from the performance and availability of commercial-grade databases, but at only 10% of the cost.
