Amazon RDS Snapshot Export to S3 is now available in AWS GovCloud (US) regions, enabling you to export snapshot data in Apache Parquet format for analytics, data retention, and machine learning use cases.
Snapshot export to S3 supports all DB snapshot types (manual, automated system, and AWS Backup snapshots) and runs directly on the snapshot without impacting database performance. The exported data in Apache Parquet format can be analyzed using other AWS services such as Amazon Athena, Amazon SageMaker, or Amazon Redshift Spectrum, or with big data processing frameworks such as Apache Spark.
You can create a snapshot export with just a few clicks in the Amazon RDS Management Console or by using the AWS SDK or CLI. Snapshot Export to S3 is supported for Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL – Compatible Edition and Amazon Aurora MySQL, Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for MySQL, and Amazon RDS for MariaDB snapshots. For more information, including instructions on getting started, read Aurora documentation or Amazon RDS documentation.
