In this talk I will explain the benefits of the Amazon Aurora and especially its Serverless variant and how it evolved between its versions 1 and 2. I'll also explain challenges of AWS Lambda with connection management using relational database like Aurora Serverless v2 . I'll introduce 2 possible solutions to this challenge with Amazon RDS Proxy and Data API and compare both approaches. I'll dive deeper into the different features of the Data API (using AWS SDK for Java) like (batch) statement execution and working with database transactions.
