RDS
makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. Provides
cost-efficient and resizable capacity while automating time-consuming administration
tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backup
Neptune
fast, reliable, fully managed graph database services that makes it easy to build and run
applications that work with highly connected datasets
IAM
identity access management - when you create a user/group, it's created globally
