AWS Aurora Serverless Tutorial | Step By Step

AWS Aurora Serverless is a on demand database platform that allows developers to use RDS databases without worrying about managing servers. It is a hands off product that automatically spins up when traffic is received, and scales down when traffic falls - saving you money in the process. In this video, I show you how to configure your own RDS Aurora Serverless MySQL instance in the AWS console. I also walk you throw using the Data API that offers a convenient way to interact with your database.

Daniel, your videos are awesome (not only this one). Very good job, thank you.

[johnnyboghean]

This has been an awesome video. Cleared some things for me that I have tried to figure out the entire day. Big thank you
The last piece of the puzzle for me seems to be about how to find/generate/manage the secretArn.

EDIT:
Found the secretArn in the secret manager, seems to have been created automatically with the db

EDIT 2:
... and my day ends with a SUCCESS ... uhuuu

Always all the information you will need in a concise timeframe 🔥

Thanks! Do you think they’ll add a SQL workbench sort of feature to Aurora Serverless? …or something nice for viewing the schema like we can in DynamoDB … or do you think they just prefer we use DynamoDB

I have react as frontend + setup on amplify + planning t use aurora db, wanted to use restapi with nodejs as the option. what way do i prroceed to do database operations

[sakarsr]

Hi, Just let us know if i can get the cost of each Aurora insistence separably. So it will help us in SASS programming.

Any suggestion on how to load large amounts of data to an Aurora serverless instance? Today, AWS doesn't allow the use of S3 for data loads to serverless.

At around 9.10 you mention setting up internet access to aurora serverless and that you have another video for that. Could you post the link here? Many thanks!

[georgemap]

Great video, thank you! Will you make a video any time soon about serveless v2? What the main differences are compared to v1 and if its superior to any aspect compred to v1?
It would be really great

[ashwinic]

Can we change default database port to different port in serverles?

[MaltheHave]

Awesome video! I'm having a hard time figuring the pricing out however.

In US East (N. Virginia) the price is $0.06 per ACU Hour. But giving that it's serverless I assume that you only pay for the hours that 1 ACU is actually running. But do you also pay for the 15 minutes it takes to shut down the ACU? And what would happen if I had 1 read every 15 minutes in a day, would that mean the ACU would never be shut down and I would pay 0.06*24 = $1.44 each day?

I hope you can help me shed some light on this - thank you very much in advance.

Is it possible for me to create an automation type from 00h to change the serverless dawn to X capacity and at 11h to change to Y capacity? What happens is that my aurora costs are high, but there are times I don't need it with X capacity. And if I leave automatic oscillating capacity, between a scale and another the application is slow and falls. have you been through this? Do you know what it is better to do?
