Amazon RDS for SQL Server: Read Replicas with Additional Storage Volumes
AI Impact Summary
Amazon RDS for SQL Server now allows read replicas to be created alongside additional storage volumes, expanding scaling capabilities up to 256 TiB. This enables customers to build highly available read-heavy workloads with independent storage management for the primary and replica instances. The key change is that the read replica preserves the storage layout, including any additional volumes, simplifying migration and management compared to traditional read replica setups.
