Do you have an experience, recommendation or guidelines for using RDS databases (postgres and mysql) with Amazon ec2 instances?

Are you asking specifically about using them with Nagios or just in general?

My knowledge of Amazon RDS databases is expanding, but I think for the sake of this discussion, these are merely externally hosted databases.

Does Nagios XI support externally hosted postgres and/or mysql databases?
