#23You're going to cry the day when you try to clone your Elastic Beanstalk environment to do a rolling upgrade, and the termination of the first wipes away your RDS db with it. It's undocumented, but you'd be better off creating the db separately, not within the beanstalk wizard, to avoid this
That is an awesome default.
