The provisioning is much faster. You don't have to prepare hardware or install software. You just need to create an instance and you have a database.
Amazon RDS is stable, scalable, and easy to deploy, offering tools for scalability and disaster recovery. It features automated backups and robust KMS encryption for compliance. Despite supporting large-scale migrations, RDS has a higher cost than GCP, with inadequate technical support and limited database integration. While documentation usability needs improvement, the complexity of migrating from on-premises systems requires attention to simplify transitions, ultimately reducing database management overhead.
