RDS Browser

The RDS view is read-only and focuses on what you need to connect to and understand a database.

The instance list shows identifier, engine, status, class, endpoint and port, and Multi-AZ. Opening an instance shows a connection panel with a copy button, and tabs for:

  • Details: engine and version, status, class, master username, availability zone, Multi-AZ, creation time, and read replica relationships.
  • Storage: type, size, IOPS, encryption and KMS key.
  • Networking: public accessibility, subnet group and VPC security groups.
  • Backup: retention, backup and maintenance windows, and the restorable time range.
  • Tags and Raw JSON.

Opening a cluster shows its writer and reader endpoints (both copyable), its members with their writer or reader role and promotion tier, and its parameter group, subnet group and backup settings.

  • Snapshots lists DB instance snapshots with their source, type, status, engine, size, encryption and creation time.
  • Parameter groups lists instance and cluster parameter groups together. Opening one shows every parameter with its value, whether it is modifiable, its apply method and allowed values.
  • Deep link with ?instance=, ?cluster=, or ?parameterGroup=<name>&parameterGroupSource=instance|cluster.
  • Export instances, clusters and snapshots to JSON or CSV.
