Amazon RDS for Db2 expands support for memory optimized X2iedn DB instances in US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Hyderabad), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Jakarta), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Osaka), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Spain) and South America (Sao Paulo). X2iedn instances are well-suited for memory-intensive, read-heavy and high-throughput write operations.

X2iedn instances are powered by 3rd generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors (Ice Lake). X2iedn instances are designed for the requirements of high performance enterprise-class databases, by offering high compute (up to 128 vCPUs), large memory (up to 4 TB) and storage throughput (up to 256K IOPS) with a 32:1 memory to vCPU ratio. 

Get started by creating a fully managed X2iedn database instance using the Amazon RDS Management Console or the AWS CLI. See Amazon RDS for Db2 Pricing for up-to-date pricing of instances, storage, data transfer and regional availability.
