Amazon RDS for Db2 Adds Support for Read Replicas Now
🔁 Amazon RDS for Db2 now supports read replicas, allowing customers to add up to three replicas per instance to offload read-only workloads and reduce load on the primary database. Replicas can be created in the same Region or across Regions and use asynchronous replication so read queries do not impact the writer. You can promote a replica for disaster recovery to enable read/write operations. Note that IBM Db2 licenses are required for all replica vCPUs; customers may use On‑Demand licenses from the AWS Marketplace or BYOL.
