AWS has also introduced Query API for AWS RDS, and Data API for Aurora Serverless. Both are designed to send query requests over HTTPS (same as what you would do with DynamoDB). And that means the Lambda function doesn't have to deal with a database connection, thus there shouldn't be performance issues when using Lambda+RDS "anymore".

> It’s cool that aws has the data api for lambda to connect to aurora serverless. But then you’re stuck with MySQL instead of postgres, and also stuck with ~100ms db access times. 100ms is pretty damn slow still unfortunately. Also, I much prefer postgres to mysql.
