AWS RDS Data API

backendgroup:ops
Phase-Out

In Optibus Operations, we have historically used the AWS RDS Data API to simplify the process of accessing and manipulating data from our lambdas. This API provides a serverless way to interact with Amazon Aurora Serverless.

As we ran into throttling issues, we are now in the process of transitioning away from the AWS Data API in favor of directly accessing RDS using sequalize. This will allow us to upgrade to Aurora Serverless version 2.
