Summary
Amazon announced the general availability of AWS Aurora Serverless v2, a relational database-as-a-service offering MySQL and PostgreSQL interfaces. However, Aurora Serverless v2 is of limited use for production workloads due to its lack of support for infrastructure as code (IaC) support via AWS CloudFormation, and its lack of support for scale to zero.
