Using it. Moving off it.

RDS public by default (!), and the private config just removes the public IP address rather than puts in private subnet. Causes it to fail CIS benchmark which is requirement for FTR.

When I raised it I was told I was wrong.

I think there is a good future for the product but one size fits all config comes with downsides. IMO Would be better if it was IaC but with pre built "blocks" app, cache, etc, which you could easily customize. I also think the pricing is too steep for your average scaling bootstrapper which is where Heroku et al shined.

RDS has been default private for probably 6 months or longer.

We are working on a major new product version that does exactly this ;)
