A quick configuration change may do the trick in improving the performance of your AWS RDS for MySQL instance. Here, we will discuss a notable new feature in Amazon RDS, the Dedicated Log Volume (DLV), that has been introduced to boost database performance. and later v10 versions MySQL: 8.0.28 and later v8 versions PostgreSQL: 13.10

Now that Database-as-a-service (DBaaS) is in high demand, there are multiple questions regarding AWS services that cannot always be answered easily: When should I use Aurora and when should I use RDS MySQL ? What we should really compare is the MySQL and Aurora database engines provided by Amazon RDS.

The optimization goal was to improve the application efficiency, that is to improve the ratio between service throughput and cloud costs while not increasing the application latency (e.g. The baseline configuration—the initial sizing of microservices—only provided an efficiency of 0.29 below 500ms) and error rates (e.g.
