Unable to Launch RDS MySQL Instance in "ap-southeast-1-mnl-1a"

0

Hello everyone,

The AWS Local zone in Manila currently consists of only a single Availability Zone (ap-southeast-1-mnl-1a). Due to this limitation, AWS does not allow me to launch an RDS MySQL Instance in this zone.

Could you please advise if there is an alternative?

Thank You.

Unfortunately, this documentation does not yet allow the use of RDS.
So, as an alternative, how about starting an RDS at "ap-southeast-1" and going there to access it?
The "ap-southeast-1" region should be closer than other regions, so communication latency can be reduced somewhat.

The following document says that VPCs can be extended to local zones, so it may be possible to connect to ap-southeast-1 RDS from the local zone using this feature.

    Thank you very much for the suggestion. Currently, my application is deployed in the "ap-southeast-1" region, and I want to minimize the latency as much as possible.

    It is better to run RDS in the same region where the application is located. Also, consider CloudFront or other means if available to reduce application communication latency.
