Managing Databases in the Cloud is BROKEN!
summary
Rapido live demo shows an automation-first platform that targets fleets of RDS/Postgres/MySQL instances, with a rule engine: block throttle cache that runs in real time. Concrete claims include reduced CPU baseline from ~100% to 20–30% after a few rules, dashboard drilldown to offending queries and locks, a real-time 3s refresh for per-instance inspection, and a billing case claiming saved >$500k/month on RDS compute. The demo applies rules to specific query patterns and shows them taking effect.
