aurora serverless data api support

[ragogitpub]

Hello

Any plan on adding aurora serverless data api support ?

We are planning on using serverless. But the lambdas inside VPC have this weird problem and has gotten us into trouble.

if the data api can be used then we could get by without putting the custom resource inside VPC ?

Thank you

The data api can only be used for aurora serverless databases. It requires such a big change to the provider, that it warrants creating a new one, specific for aurora serverless.

It estimate it to be a good 2-3 days work, which I cannot spare at the moment. If you have a business case for it, let me know.

RDS data also has some other quirks like that you must use Secrets.
However, since any lambda environment can talk to mysql over rds-data without libraries, it is fairly easy to just write small inline lambdas to create users and database.
