Can AWS RDS Proxy be paired with read replication instance directly?


I created an RDS Proxy with existing Aurora PostgreSQL cluster.

But I want to pair the proxy with specific read replica instance of the cluster. Is that possible?


Solution

  • From what AWS claims about RDS proxy:

    The same consideration applies for RDS DB instances in replication configurations. You can associate a proxy only with the writer DB instance, not a read replica.
