Amazon RDS provides managed relational databases (Aurora, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, SQL Server) with automated backups, scaling, patching, and multi‑AZ failover. It's designed for reliability and operational simplicity at scale.

AWS RDS is available in AWS China regions (Beijing and Ningxia), supporting MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB. Aurora and SQL Server aren't supported in China regions as of 2025. The service requires separate China‑region provisioning and local ICP and compliance. Cross‑region replication to global RDS is possible but requires VPN/cross‑border links.

The information regarding service availability in China is provided for general reference purposes only. Due to the dynamic nature of network conditions and regulatory environments, the actual accessibility of these services may vary over time and by location. Users are advised to verify the current status independently.
