Amazon RDS - Remote Hosted MySQL Database Libraries and Altium 365

Dispersed teams working remotely can easily collaborate using Altium 365 and a MySQL Database Library hosted on Amazon RDS for their circuit board design projects.

A robust remote library solution can be created by using an Altium 365 Git based project to share symbols and footprints and an Amazon RDS MySQL database for the parametric data.

"MySQL is the world's most popular open source relational database and Amazon RDS makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale MySQL deployments in the cloud. With Amazon RDS, you can deploy scalable MySQL servers in minutes with cost-efficient and resizable hardware capacity.

Amazon RDS for MySQL frees you up to focus on application development by managing time-consuming database administration tasks including backups, software patching, monitoring, scaling and replication.

Amazon RDS supports MySQL Community Edition versions 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, and 8.0 which means that the code, applications, and tools you already use today can be used with Amazon RDS."
