MIGRATING RDS INSTANCES TO IPV6

0

Hello AWS developers,

Please I would like to know, is migrating already existing RDS instances to IPV6 easy or complex?

If it's fairly easy, then please can I get an easy step by step process/walkthrough?

To answer most of your questions, this blog post IPv6 addressing with Amazon RDS covers the ask in a very detailed manner.

Please take a look if not already gone through and see if it helps.

Comment here if you have additional questions, I"d more than happy to assist.

    Hi Abhishek,

    Thanks for your response, however I have another question.

    What does the following statement mean ? (I found it in the same link you provided)

    "Databases that have only IPv6 endpoints are currently not supported by Amazon RDS, and dual-stack databases are only supported in private mode—publicly accessible dual-stack DB instances are not supported."

    Does "publicly accessible dual-stack DB instances are not supported" mean that my personal projects (hosted on Vercel and Render) wont be able to access my AWS RDS instances over the internet ?

    If Yes, then what's the point of me migrating if I would no longer be able to access my RDS instances ?

    Please let me know your thoughts.
