StopRelationalDatabase
Stops a specific database that is currently running in Amazon Lightsail.
Note
If you don't manually start your database instance after it has been stopped for seven consecutive days, Amazon Lightsail automatically starts it for you. This action helps ensure that your database instance doesn't fall behind on any required maintenance updates.
The stop relational database
operation supports tag-based access control via
resource tags applied to the resource identified by relationalDatabaseName. For more
information, see the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.
