I'm trying to insert records into a Postgres database in RDS from a Lambda function. My Node.js lambda function works correctly when run locally, but the database connection times out when run in AWS. I've read several articles and tutorials which suggest that AWS Lambda functions cannot access RDS instances that are within a VPC. For example: http://ashiina.github.io/2015/01/amazon-lambda-first-impression/ Unfortunately; it seems I am unable to create an RDS instance that exists outside of a VPC. At this dropdown I would expect to be able to select an option for "No VPC" or something along

We're having problems with Amazon-hosted Play application with RDS Mysql . Sometimes the application ends up unresponsive. Today I checked the thread status with jstack -F and there were multiple threads stuck in native code for c3p0 connection : Thread 14060: (state = IN_NATIVE) - java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(java.io.FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int) @bci=0 (Compiled frame; information may be imprecise) - java.net.SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int, int) @bci=79, line=150 (Compiled frame) - java.net.SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) @bci=11, line=121 (Compiled frame

In MySQL 5.6.22 (specifically running on Amazon RDS) I once had a fulltext index on a table. I have since dropped that index in favor of using sphinxsearch. There are no more fulltext indexes on any of the tables on the database. When I try to now perform an online DDL such as adding a tinyint column to a table with LOCK=NONE I get this error: InnoDB presently supports one FULLTEXT index creation at a time. Try LOCK=SHARED. But, there are no fulltext indexes anywhere. I've even tried creating a read-replica in Amazon in hopes that the rebuilding of the database would fix that and I get the

Can anyone list down the main differences between Amazon Redshift and RDS? I know both are relational DB's but why choose one over the other ? RDS is a managed service for Online Transaction Processing databases (OLTP), i.e. a managed service for the usual MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server or Aurora (Amazon's own relational database) Redshift is a managed service for data warehousing, i.e. columnar oriented storage, typical for business analytics type of workloads. Brief Introduction of AWS RDS & Redshift, AWS RDS: Amazon RDS is a managed relational database service that

While launching a MySQL 5.5 RDS instance, Amazon uses a default parameter group to configure the my.ini parameters, but the console doesn't allow me to modify them. How can I achieve this? (e.g. setting the storage engine to MyISAM by default or setting character set ...) This is documented here: http://aws.amazon.com/articles/2935 If you're looking for these parameters to modify, then AWS has to say no... Because of architectural differences between Aurora MySQL and MySQL, some MySQL parameters and status variables do not apply to Aurora MySQL. The following MySQL parameters do not apply to

I have a database hosted using Amazon's RDS service and I am attempting to write a web service that will update said database. The problem I am having is that it will not let me use the COPY command as I get this error: "ERROR: must be superuser to COPY to or from a file". I am using the only user I have made for the database and I am fairly certain it has superuser access. I can, however, use PGAdmin's import tool to import the data which, when looking at the log, uses almost the exact same command as I do. The only difference is instead of the file path it has stdin. How can I fix this error

I'm new in AWS world. I have an issue to access to my instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express (11.00.5058) on RDS (US-East-1a). When I have created DB instance, I was able to access to it, create some tables, transfer data, etc.. everything worked fine ! I didn't change anything and few hours after some inactivity, I try to access to the SQL Server instance by using Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager but I was not able to connect to it anymore. I got following message: Cannot connect to m3instance.cqbvdcpcgye3.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com,1433. A network-related or instance-specific
