amazon-redshiftHow do I set up Amazon RDS replication?

To set up Amazon RDS replication, you will need to use the AWS CLI.

First, create an RDS instance for the primary database. This can be done using the aws rds create-db-instance command.

aws rds create-db-instance --db-instance-identifier primary-db --engine mysql --allocated-storage 5 --db-instance-class db.t2.micro

Next, create an RDS instance for the replica database. This can be done using the aws rds create-db-instance-read-replica command.

aws rds create-db-instance-read-replica --db-instance-identifier replica-db --source-db-instance-identifier primary-db

Then, create a replication group that contains both the primary and replica databases. This can be done using the aws rds create-db-cluster command.

aws rds create-db-cluster --db-cluster-identifier replication-group --engine mysql --db-cluster-members primary-db,replica-db

Finally, enable replication between the two databases. This can be done using the aws rds modify-db-instance command.

aws rds modify-db-instance --db-instance-identifier primary-db --enable-multi-az

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully set up Amazon RDS replication.
