      RDS Proxy

      Amazon RDS Proxy replication with Arpio

      Amazon RDS Proxies

      Arpio replicates your Amazon RDS Proxies to your recovery environment during a failover to ensure that workloads referencing the selected proxies will continue to operate normally in the recovery environment.

      RDS Proxy

      Arpio creates copies of selected RDS Proxy resources in the recovery environment.  

      The following attributes are translated during replication:

      Attribute

      Translation

      Auth Secret

      Translated to corresponding Secrets Manager Secret that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      Role ARN

      Translated to corresponding IAM Role that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      Subnets

      Translated to corresponding Subnets that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      Security Groups

      Translated to corresponding Security Groups that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when an RDS Proxy is selected:

      • The Secrets Manager Secrets referenced by the proxy

      • The IAM Role referenced by the proxy

      • The VPC Subnets referenced by the proxy

      • The VPC Security Groups referenced by the proxy
      • The RDS Proxy Target Groups referenced by the proxy

      RDS Proxy Endpoint

      Arpio creates copies of selected RDS Proxy Endpoints in the recovery environment.  

      The following attributes are translated during replication:

      Attribute

      Translation

      Subnets

      Translated to corresponding Subnets that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      Security Groups

      Translated to corresponding Security Groups that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when an RDS Proxy Endpoint is selected:

      • The RDS Proxy referenced by the endpoint

      • The VPC Subnets referenced by the endpoint

      • The VPC Security Groups referenced by the endpoint

      RDS Proxy Target Group

      Arpio creates copies of selected RDS Proxy Target Groups in the recovery environment.  Currently, AWS only supports a single target group per proxy named “default”, which is automatically included by Arpio when a proxy is selected, but in the future AWS may allow for additional target groups to be defined and selected individually.


      The following attributes are translated during replication:

      Attribute

      Translation

      DB Clusters

      Translated to corresponding RDS DB Clusters that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      DB Instances

      Translated to corresponding RDS DB Instances that Arpio manages in the recovery environment

      The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when an RDS Proxy Target Group is selected:

      • The RDS Proxy referenced by the target group
      • The RDS DB Clusters referenced by the target group
      • The RDS DB Instances referenced by the target group
