With Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) on VMware, you can use the same, simple interface to manage databases in on-premises VMware environments as you would use in AWS. You can easily replicate Amazon RDS on VMware databases to Amazon RDS instances in AWS, enabling low-cost hybrid deployments for disaster recovery, read replica bursting, and optional long-term backup retention in Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3). Amazon RDS on VMware is in preview and will be generally available soon, supporting Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB databases, with Oracle to follow in the future.

Amazon RDS Managed Database Vision
We make it easy to set up, operate, and scale relational databases in the cloud so customers
can focus on application optimization.
We maintain a higher bar on security, durability and availability than what’s available on-
premises, on EC2, or with any other cloud provider.
We let customers choose the database engine that is right for them: Amazon Aurora (MySQL
or PostgreSQL), MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server.
We enable scaling from tiny databases on small CPUs to enterprise-class databases on
enterprise hardware.
We work to save our customers money through elasticity and operational efficiencies.
