Amazon RDS

Amazon has just begun offering (in beta) a new "Relational Database Service" or RDS for short. It's MySQL 5.1 wrapped into a user-friendly API to make it super easy to backup and scale your server. They also added new and larger EC2 machine types for which typical use case would be a database server.

I have not used any of the AWS seriously but I must admit that I find the idea and technology really interesting. Perhaps I can come up with a nice project to make use of these technologies. I'll put this in the back of my mind and see if I can come up with something.
