My impression is that Amazon RDS is quite a scalable solution. If there are any issues, it's usually on the application side of things.

The solution's scalability depends on the application. There are no fixed users. I plan to increase the usage of the solution.
View full review »It is definitely a scalable solution, but we have not scaled up to the maximum since we have not faced any problems yet, considering we operate well within the threshold, which makes the product good for us.
My entire team consisting of around fifty people uses the solution.
It's supposed to be scalable, but we don't feel that. True, there won't be any drops. The solution they gave was to maintain our cluster at a level sufficient for our peak load. However, that will probably defeat the whole purpose of on-demand scalability. So that is certainly where we might need to rethink.
View full review »Amazon RDS is highly scalable. It is much simpler to scale up compared to an on-premise solution where you need to buy new hardware and migrate all the data. Ifwe need more capacity, there is a symbol that you can click on to upgrade your hardware.
If you want one more server in a different region, you can spin it up and everything is done on the cloud. You can just select what you need and go, whether you're going to downgrade or upgrade to system type TX for whatever configuration you want.

We haven't reached the point where we need to scale up for performance or storage. But I don't think manually scaling the discs is easy to do, so it should be able to scale on its own. In addition, the instances can manage the traffic, and there's an option for setting each total scale. So depending on how production goes, we may scale it. We have three people using the solution, including myself. So we need only one person to maintain.

We haven't expanded on the solution, so I'm unsure about if it would scale well or not. We have a bunch of teams using the solution in the company, but they're small.

Scalability is an issue. It doesn't handle large data sets well, so we use a different solution for those. This is a limitation of RDBMs, and data doubles every two years.

RDS is a single instance. However, the actual users are approximately 500 people, both direct and indirect.

The solution is fully scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so with ease.
Everyone in our organization uses the product. It's pretty widespread. The idea is you save your data on Cloud and make it available to everybody, add it to your website.
We plan to continue to use this service, at least over the next year or so.

I don't think it's very scalable. In comparison, Microsoft Azure has many options. In RDS, I couldn't even find many options to increase or to perform a scale up or scale down.
