Amazon RDS for Aurora
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. Our CleanSlate AWS experts utilize Amazon Aurora to provide multiple levels of security for our clients’ databases and enable them to easily scale database deployment up and down, from smaller to larger instance types as their needs change.
