What should be done to a read replica if it needs to take over as the main DB?

Question

Mahesh B · Accepted Answer

To promote a read replica as the main DB instance, go to the RDS console, select the read replica, and choose to promote it. Finally, consider backing up the new primary instance. For the old primary DB, evaluate its status and decide whether to delete it or keep it. If you choose to keep it, you may need to reconfigure replication and take backups as necessary.
