Availability detection
Updated at:
Alibaba Cloud performs availability detection to check the health of your RDS instance, using either short-lived or persistent connections. By default, these checks use persistent connections.
- If your application frequently creates and closes database connections, we recommend using the short-lived connection method.
- If your application uses a connection pool, we recommend using the persistent connection method.
Note Changing the detection method does not affect your running instance.
