Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) is a web service that makes it easier to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. It provides cost-efficient, resizeable capacity for an industry-standard relational database and manages common database administration tasks, freeing up developers to focus on what makes their applications and businesses unique.
Amazon RDS gives you access to the capabilities of a MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Db2, or Amazon Aurora database server. These capabilities mean that the code, applications, and tools you already use today with your existing databases work with Amazon RDS without modification. Amazon RDS automatically backs up your database and maintains the database software that powers your DB instance. Amazon RDS is flexible: you can scale your DB instance's compute resources and storage capacity to meet your application's demand. As with all Amazon Web Services, there are no up-front investments, and you pay only for the resources you use.
This interface reference for Amazon RDS contains documentation for a programming or command line interface you can use to manage Amazon RDS. Amazon RDS is asynchronous, which means that some interfaces might require techniques such as polling or callback functions to determine when a command has been applied. In this reference, the parameter descriptions indicate whether a command is applied immediately, on the next instance reboot, or during the maintenance window. The reference structure is as follows, and we list following some related topics from the user guide.

rds(config = list(), credentials = list(), endpoint = NULL, region = NULL)A client for the service. You can call the service's operations using
syntax like svc$operation(...), where svc is the name you've assigned
to the client. The available operations are listed in the
Operations section.
Optional configuration of credentials, endpoint, and/or region.
credentials:
creds:
access_key_id: AWS access key ID
secret_access_key: AWS secret access key
session_token: AWS temporary session token
profile: The name of a profile to use. If not given, then the default profile is used.
anonymous: Set anonymous credentials.
endpoint: The complete URL to use for the constructed client.
region: The AWS Region used in instantiating the client.
close_connection: Immediately close all HTTP connections.
timeout: The time in seconds till a timeout exception is thrown when attempting to make a connection. The default is 60 seconds.
s3_force_path_style: Set this to true to force the request to use path-style addressing, i.e. http://s3.amazonaws.com/BUCKET/KEY.
sts_regional_endpoint: Set sts regional endpoint resolver to regional or legacy https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdkref/latest/guide/feature-sts-regionalized-endpoints.html
Optional credentials shorthand for the config parameter
creds:
access_key_id: AWS access key ID
