AWS RDS Management, Beyond What Amazon Provides
Geopits provides the expert DBA layer that AWS RDS does not. We manage the performance, cost, and reliability of your RDS environment so your team gets more from the infrastructure you are already paying for. From slow query analysis and instance rightsizing to Multi-AZ health checks, Read Replica management, and cost optimisation, we handle what CloudWatch and Performance Insights flag but cannot fix.

AWS RDS Runs Your Database. We Make It Perform.
Amazon RDS is a fully managed cloud database service that handles the infrastructure layer of running relational databases on AWS, covering provisioning, patching, backups, and basic availability through Multi-AZ deployments. It supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, MariaDB, and the Aurora-compatible variants, giving teams a broad choice of engines without the operational burden of managing servers.
What RDS does not provide is database expertise. It monitors infrastructure metrics through CloudWatch and surfaces query data through Performance Insights, but it does not tune your slow queries, right-size your instance for your actual workload, fix parameter group misconfigurations, or alert your team when a bad execution plan is quietly degrading response times. That is the gap Geopits fills. We manage the performance and cost layer on top of your RDS infrastructure so you get the full value of what you are paying Amazon for.

Every Geopits RDS engagement covers the performance and cost layer that Amazon does not manage. Continuous visibility into query performance, instance utilisation, Read Replica lag, Multi-AZ health, and storage growth powered by GeoOps, our in-house monitoring platform.

Know MoreFrequently Asked Questions
If we are already on AWS RDS, why do we need Geopits?
AWS RDS manages your infrastructure, not your database performance. It handles provisioning, patching, and basic availability, but it does not tune your slow queries, correct parameter group misconfigurations, right-size your instance for your actual workload, or proactively catch performance drift. Geopits provides the expert DBA layer that fills that gap.
What does AWS RDS managed services from Geopits include?
Our RDS engagement covers 24/7 monitoring beyond CloudWatch, slow query analysis and tuning, instance and storage rightsizing, parameter group optimisation, Read Replica and Multi-AZ management, engine version upgrade management, backup verification, cost optimisation, and incident response. Every engagement includes proactive monitoring via GeoOps and a dedicated DBA team familiar with your RDS setup.
Which RDS database engines does Geopits support?
Geopits supports all major RDS engines: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, and MariaDB, as well as Aurora MySQL and Aurora PostgreSQL. We bring engine-specific DBA expertise to each, not generic RDS administration.
How does Geopits monitor RDS differently from CloudWatch?
CloudWatch monitors infrastructure metrics like CPU, memory, and disk I/O at the instance level. GeoOps, our in-house monitoring platform, adds database-level visibility: slow query tracking, execution plan changes, index usage patterns, replication lag, and connection pool saturation. We catch issues that CloudWatch cannot see and act on them before they reach your users.
How does Geopits help reduce our AWS RDS costs?
We review instance class selection, storage type and IOPS configuration, Read Replica usage, snapshot retention policies, and Reserved Instance opportunities. Most teams find meaningful cost savings within the first quarter without any reduction in performance or availability.
How quickly can Geopits onboard our existing RDS environment?
Most RDS environments are fully onboarded within two to three weeks. We start with a read-only audit of your instance configuration, parameter groups, slow query logs, and cost breakdown before taking any operational action. No downtime required.
Do you handle RDS engine version upgrades?
Yes. We assess compatibility, plan the upgrade path, schedule the maintenance window, and manage the upgrade with tested rollback procedures for both minor and major version upgrades across all supported RDS engines.
Is Geopits RDS support available for startups or only for large teams?
We work with both. Engagements are scoped to your RDS footprint and growth stage, so you are not paying for coverage that does not match your actual needs.
