Bio

A software/cloud engineer who has seen enough to go and fix things before the damage is done. I’ve built various web applications, integrated enterprise systems, run migrations, etc. I like simple, effective, and robust architectures and am always on the lookout for another interesting challenge: optimise a wonky database, turn an hour-long batch process into a blazingly fast event-based pipeline, or just talk about the quirks of another AWS service.

RDS authentication: fast, effortless, cheap — pick two

Room: Tech Stage | Time: 20:00

Every RDS connection must prove who it is, and each authentication method makes you to choose two out of three: fast, effortless, or cheap. IAM-based authentication looks like the enlightened pick: no secret to rotate, nothing extra to pay for. Then p99 latency hits the ceiling while the database sits idle. This is the unfiltered story of chasing multi-second latencies through Aurora Serverless, a test lab and RDS Proxy (with real graphs) and why RDS IAM auth never lands on “fast” for free.
