Hello,
We are setting up a fault tolerant FME flow setup where in we have decided to use AWS RDS as FME Flow database component.
First if all, is it right thing to use RDS or do we need to have a separate postgres instance installed on an EC2 machine ?
Secondly, if we can use, please let me know the steps or any resource material to setup the fme flow withg RDS postgres as database component.
Thanks.

Hello
It is definitely possible to use an AWS RDS as your FME Flow Database component. You would not need to have a local copy of Postgres installed on your machine - just the Postgres on your AWS RDS.
Here is documentation for using a separate database server as your FME Flow Database: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Configure-FME-Flow-Database-on-Separate_Server-2-Tier.htm
As well, here is information on how to provide the separate database server: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Provide_Database_Server-2-Tier.htm
