AWS RDS: Faster, Clearer Database Navigation
Streamlining form creation and onboarding experience for AWS Relational Database users
With over 1.1+ million global users relying on AWS RDS for mission-critical workloads, even small inefficiencies create significant downstream impact, which are reflected in the form creation setup and the database onboarding journey.
Over the course of this 7-month graduate capstone, I led research and design efforts within a team of 4 to rethink how users create, understand, and connect their databases.
