RDS instance storage limit handling

63 views Asked by At

I am planning using MySQL on RDS instance for my work. I have couple of questions regarding its limit. I checked the below two links but have not clearly understood them :

As per my understanding of link 1 the maximum amount of data that can be stored on single RDS instance is 3TB and based on information in Link 2 the total that be stored across multiple instances is 100 TB. Have I understood the above correctly? If so, if my application requires more data to be stored what would be best way to handle? Does creating multiple instances and having different sub-parts of the application deal with its each own separate instance seem a correct way? Or can I still create a single instance(assuming network traffic and data intensive operations are not high) and yet store more than 3TB data in some other way?
