RDS for MySQL Constraints

The following tables list the constraints designed to ensure the stability and security of RDS for MySQL.

Specifications and Performance

Table 1 Specifications
Item	Constraints
Storage space	Cloud SSD: 40 GB to 4,000 GB Extreme SSD: 40 GB to 4,000 GB
Connections	A maximum of 100,000
IOPS	Cloud SSD: a maximum of 50,000 Extreme SSD: a maximum of 128,000

Quotas

Table 2 Quotas
Item	Constraints	Description
Read replica	A maximum of five read replicas can be created for a DB instance.	For more information, see Introducing Read Replicas.
Tags	A maximum of 20 tags can be added for a DB instance.	For more information, see RDS for MySQL Tags.
Free backup space	RDS provides free backup space of the same size as your purchased storage space.	After you pay for the storage space of your DB instance, you will get a backup space of the same size for free. For more information, see How Is RDS Backup Data Billed?
Retention period of automated backups	The default value is 7 days. The value ranges from 1 to 732 days.	For more information, see Configuring an Intra-Region Backup Policy.
Log retention period	Error log details: 30 days Slow query log details: 30 days Original slow query logs: 30 days Slow query log statistics: 30 days Failover/switchover logs: 30 days SQL audit logs: The default value is 7 days. The value ranges from 1 to 732 days.	For more information, see Log Management.

Naming

Table 3 Naming
Item	Constraints
Instance name	4 to 64 characters long Must start with a letter. Only letters (case sensitive), digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
Database name	1 to 64 characters long Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed. The total number of hyphens (-) cannot exceed 10.
Account name	RDS for MySQL 5.6: The account name must be 1 to 16 characters long. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed. RDS for MySQL 5.7 and 8.0: The account name must be 1 to 32 characters long. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
Backup name	4 to 64 characters long Must start with a letter. Only letters (case sensitive), digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
Parameter template name	1 to 64 characters long Only letters (case sensitive), digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.) are allowed.

Security

Table 4 Security
Item	Constraints
root permissions	Only the administrator account root is provided on the instance creation page. For details about the supported permissions, see root Permissions. NOTE: Running revoke, drop user, or rename user on root may cause service interruption. Exercise caution when running any of these statements.
root password	8 to 32 characters long Must contain at least three types of the following characters: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters (~!@$#%^*-_=+?,()&.\|). For more information, see Resetting the Administrator Password.
Database port	1024 to 65535 (excluding 12017, 33071, and 33062, which are occupied by the RDS system) For more information, see Changing a Database Port.
Disk encryption	If you enable disk encryption during instance creation, the disk encryption status and the key cannot be changed later. For more information, see Performing a Server-Side Encryption.
VPC	The VPC where a DB instance is located cannot be changed after the instance is created.
Security group	By default, you can create a maximum of 100 security groups in your cloud account. By default, you can add up to 50 security group rules to a security group. For more information, see Configuring Security Group Rules.
System account	To provide O&M services, the system automatically creates system accounts when you create RDS for MySQL DB instances. These system accounts are unavailable to you. rdsAdmin: a management account with the highest permission. It is used to query and modify instance information, rectify faults, migrate data, and restore data. rdsRepl: a replication account, used to synchronize data from the primary instance to the standby instance or read replicas. rdsBackup: a backup account, used for backend backup. rdsMetric: a metric monitoring account used by watchdog to collect database status data. rdsProxy: a database proxy account, used for authentication when the database is connected through the read/write splitting address. This account is automatically created when you enable read/write splitting.
Instance parameter	To ensure optimal performance of RDS, you can modify parameters in the parameter template you created as needed. For more information, see Suggestions on RDS for MySQL Parameter Tuning.

Instance Operations

Table 5 Instance operations
Item	Constraints
RDS for MySQL storage engine	Only the InnoDB storage engine is supported. MyISAM, FEDERATED, and MEMORY are not supported.
Instance deployment	ECSs where DB instances are deployed are not directly visible to you. You can only access the DB instances through IP addresses and database ports.
Primary/Standby replication	RDS for MySQL uses a primary/standby dual-node replication cluster. You do not need to set up replication additionally. The standby DB instance is not visible to you and therefore you cannot access it directly.
Rebooting a DB instance	DB instances cannot be rebooted through commands. They must be rebooted through the RDS console.
Viewing backups	You can download automated and manual backups for local storage. To download a backup, you can use OBS Browser+, the current browser, or the download URL. For more information, see Downloading a Backup File.
Log management	RDS for MySQL logging is enabled by default and cannot be disabled. Binary logging is enabled for RDS for MySQL by default and uses row-based logging. Read replicas do not provide binlogs.
Recycle bin	RDS allows you to move deleted pay-per-use DB instances to the recycle bin. You can rebuild a DB instance that was deleted up to 7 days ago from the recycle bin.
