Does RDS for MySQL Support Sharding and Read/Write Splitting?

Yes. RDS for MySQL supports sharding and read/write splitting.

RDS works with Distributed Database Middleware (DDM) to provide sharding, allowing you to easily scale up your database. For details, see Sharding Database and Table Data of an RDS for MySQL Instance.
Up to five read replicas can be created for a primary DB instance. Read replicas and DB instances are connected through separate IP addresses.
If you want to access your instance and read replicas using a unified read/write splitting address, enable read/write splitting first.
