How Long Does It Take to Create an RDS for SQL Server Instance?

  • RDS for SQL Server:
    • Creating a single-node instance takes about 12 to 15 minutes.
    • Creating a primary/standby instance takes about 15 to 18 minutes.

If creating an instance takes much more time than described above, there may be problems during the creation. In this case, contact customer service by choosing Service Tickets > Create Service Ticket in the upper right corner of the management console.
