Where does RDS (MariaDB) store its (audit) log files

0

Hi, I want to know where does RDS store its log files. Is it on the same storage as the database data is located?

I am asking this because we added audit logging and we expect the logs to be fairly large, will this impact performance?

The audit logs are stored on the same data volume with the rest of the database. However the logs are set to auto rotate and you can control the maximum size of disk utilized by the logs. There is also io necessary to write to the logs so there is a measurable amount of resources necessary to write the audit logs.
