Are you trying to use AWS RDS for pega platform database or just external connectivity? My guess is the latter as we do not support mySQL as the main platform database.

In fact we have an external oracle DB connected to Pega . As all our system migrating to AWS we are planning to use AWS RDS for pega platfrom.
RDS Database engien will be Amazon Aurora.

From what I read, Amazon Aurora is mySQL based, which is not yet supported as the main pega database platform, pegacloud is running postgresql on Amazon RDS. Check with your pega account manager if you intend to use mySQL as your db platform, it would have been an enhancement request.

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the reply.You are corret AWS Aurora is mySQL based Platform.At present our requirement is to use Amazon Aurora as an external DB(Current external DB is on Oracle).
We wont be quering this DB. Just our Workobject info wil be saved and someother system will use this DB for reporting purpose.
Do we need to change our DB platfrom to mySQL for these ?
Thanks

No as long as you only use it for external DB. Check this link from PegaExchange: http://www.pegaxchange.com/blog/tag/pega-7-mysql-connection/. How do you populate the data from Pega main database to this external DB?
