Many applications, including those built on modern serverless architectures, have large numbers of open connections to the database server, and may open and close database connections at a high rate, exhausting database memory and compute resources. Applications that support highly variable workloads, for example, may attempt to open a burst of new database connections. Applications built on technologies such as serverless, PHP, or Ruby on Rails also open and close database connections frequently to serve application requests. In this tech talk, learn how RDS Proxy, a fully-managed, highly available, and easy-to-use database proxy feature, reduces the stress on database compute and memory resources that typically occurs when new connections are established, resulting in improved scalability, availability, and application security.

Learning Objectives:
*Learn how to improve Aurora scalability with connection pooling
*Learn how to improve Aurora availability and reduce failover times up to 66%
