Amazon RDS MySQL and Master-master replication


I can't find it from documentation, but it seems Master-Master replication is not supported at this time. Is this correct?


Solution

  • That is correct. RDS does not support Master-Master replication currently, so scaling horizontally for writes is not easily achievable, if that is your need. RDS does however support the ability to create multiple "read only" RDS slave instances, so scaling horizontally for reads is possible.

    Here is RDS FAQ on replication
