How Do I Configure a Read/Write Splitting Address?

After a read replica is created, you can enable read/write splitting and connect to the DB instance through a read/write splitting address.

  • After read/write splitting is enabled, an additional address called read/write splitting address is automatically provided. You need to switch your applications to this address for read/write splitting.
  • After read/write splitting is enabled, databases can be connected through a read/write splitting address.

    The read/write splitting address and the floating IP address of the primary DB instance are in the same VPC and subnet and are independent from each other.
