Hi Anum, great intro! Two questions from my side: - does this means that at least the cost of Aurora serverless will be the minimum ACU we have selected even if the DB is idle? - Is V2 able to support Data API? Thank you!

Hi David. 🙂 You can learn more about Amazon Aurora pricing, by region, here: go.aws/3og3p2w. If you have a particular use case in mind, you can also use this page to request a pricing quote. This document dives into what is and is not supported in Data API for Aurora Serverless: go.aws/3UNCJCr. ^SA

I can answer your 1st question. Yes, there is a minimum 0.5 ACU required which means you will be charged a min. amount even if DB is idle.

What if I were running my RDS using x2g instance, i.e. I need like 2 cores only but tons of RAM? Will this be expensive to use Aurora Serverless? I get 2GB RAM only/ACU...
