Blueprints for RDS (AWS Relational Database)

Master your relational data. Blueprints for RDS provides a high-performance, Blueprint-native interface to Amazon RDS and the RDS Data API. This plugin allows you to manage tables and access data in your SQL databases (MySQL or PostgreSQL) directly from Unreal Engine, without the overhead of traditional database connectors.

Perfect for games that require complex data relationships, such as global leaderboards, transactional inventories, or cross-player social systems, this plugin brings the reliability of SQL to your Blueprint graphs.

🚀 Key Features

• Data API Integration: Use the modern RDS Data API to run SQL statements via secure HTTPS. No more managing persistent database connections or worrying about connection limits.

• Full SQL Control: Execute any standard SQL command directly from Blueprints:

  • SELECT: Query player data, scores, or item stats with precision.

  • INSERT / UPDATE: Save new player records or modify existing data (e.g., updating a character's level or gold).

  • DELETE: Securely remove obsolete data or reset player stats.

• Aurora Serverless Optimized: Designed to work perfectly with Aurora Serverless v2, allowing your database to scale up instantly for thousands of players and scale back down to zero when not in use.

• Transaction Support: Group multiple SQL commands into a single transaction to ensure data integrity—perfect for complex item trades or currency transfers.

• Asynchronous Execution: All database queries run on background threads, ensuring your game’s UI and gameplay never hitch, even during complex data operations.

🛠 Practical Use Cases

• Complex Player Inventories: Use relational tables to manage thousands of items, attributes, and ownership states with the power of SQL JOINs.

• Global Multi-Game Leaderboards: Build sophisticated ranking systems that can filter by region, platform, or season.

• Social & Relationship Graphs: Manage "Friend," "Guild," and "Blocked" status between players using stable relational schemas.

• Game Economy Logs: Maintain a perfect, searchable history of every transaction and purchase made within your game.

• Dynamic Content Systems: Store your game’s balancing data (weapon stats, enemy health, drop rates) in RDS and fetch it at runtime for instant updates.
