Connecting Aurora (MySQL) to Amazon Q Business

Aurora (MySQL) is a relational database management system (RDBMS) built for the cloud. You can connect your Aurora (MySQL) instance to Amazon Q Business—using either the AWS Management Console, CLI, or the CreateDataSource API—and create an Amazon Q web experience.

The Amazon Q Aurora (MySQL) data source connector supports Aurora MySQL 3 and Aurora Serverless MySQL 8.0.

Important

As a best practice, provide Amazon Q with read-only database credentials. Also, avoid adding tables with sensitive data or personal identifiable information (PII).
