Aurora DSQL: Scalable, Multi-Region OLTP

Aurora DSQL is a serverless SQL database designed for cloud-scale transaction processing with multi-region active-active capabilities. Built on a disaggregated architecture, DSQL separates compute, storage, and transaction coordination into independent, horizontally scalable services. Query processors run in Firecracker MicroVMs executing PostgreSQL-compatible SQL without local state.
