Welcome back, reader! 🌟
I hope you’re continuing to learn and practice daily as part of our 75-day AWS Solutions Architect Associate (SAA) Certification Challenge. Today, we’re diving deep into the various Database as a Service (DBaaS) offerings from AWS. Databases are the backbone of any application, and AWS provides a variety of managed database services to suit different needs. So, without further ado, let’s get started!

What is DBaaS? 🤔
Database as a Service (DBaaS) is a cloud database solution that allows you to use a database without worrying about the underlying infrastructure. With DBaaS, AWS handles the database management tasks such as patching, upgrading, backups, and scaling, so you can focus more on building your applications.
How does DBaaS work? 🌐
Delivered over the internet via a web-based interface or API, DBaaS simplifies complex database management tasks by providing:
- Data Backup and Recovery: Automated backup solutions with easy recovery options.
- Scalability: Easily scale your database resources up or down.
