The most valuable feature is the ability to do multiple-read and single-write. These are the kinds of features that we were interested in, and Aurora takes care of that natively.
Amazon Aurora offers scalability without maintenance windows and simplifies management via SQL standardization with MySQL or PostgreSQL. Custom endpoints negate the need for separate proxies, while global features aid failover. Despite high costs, and lacking stand-alone options, improvements in cryptography, scalability, and migration from PostgreSQL RDS are needed. Enhanced performance insights could benefit from tools like SolarWinds. Addressing these areas can further elevate its appeal to tech buyers.
