The AWS Developers Podcast

In this episode, Emily and Dave chat with Prasad Pandit, Principal Product Manager, RDS Open Source. Prasad walks us through some of the recent performance innovations in Amazon’s Relational Database Service (RDS) as well as how MySQL writes data today. He then discusses the re:Invent 2022 launch of RDS Optimized Writes, which can help improve write throughput by up to 2x at no additional cost. RDS Optimized Writes is especially useful for MySQL customers with write-intensive database workloads, commonly found in applications such as digital payments, financial trading, and online gaming.
