Platform/SRE — Plan: If you run RDS for SQL Server 2022, you can now add RDS Proxy to gain connection pooling and up to 83% faster Multi-AZ failover with preserved app connections; evaluate whether to enable this for existing SQL Server 2022 instances this quarter.
CI/CD — Skip
Leader — Learn: RDS Proxy now covers SQL Server 2022, expanding HA and connection-pooling options for SQL Server workloads on AWS; no strategic or cost decision required, but worth noting for future SQL Server architecture reviews.
