We are accessing AWS RDS for postgres/postgis geodatabases in AWS instances directly from on-premise ArcGIS clients. While the ArcGIS clients on-premise do access the AWS geotabases instances, there appears to be frequent disconnection with the AWS server. This happens especially when we are adding multiple layers in ArcMap or do some tasks. Is there any way to handle this issue?  Esri's documentation says " Geodatabases in AWS instances are not intended to be accessed directly from on-premises ArcGIS clients .". But it says it would only slow down connectivity between ArcGIS client (on-prem) with the AWS databases instances.   Has anyone experienced this issue?  Any insights as to why we are having frequent disconnection is much appreciated.

We have enterprise geodatabases on AWS RDS for Postgres/PostGIS. And the sde account is given the rds_superuser role. While accessing the RDS geodatabase from ArcGIS client using the SDE account, the SDE account is unable to disconnect logged-in users from the geodatabase connection. And the error message is "Insufficient Permissions" or "Connection information provided was for a non-administrative user". In PostgreSQL, the sde account is given the superuser role, that is what is needed to be able to have the permissions to disconnect users. Not sure why rds_superuser role is not working as expected or whether I am missing something in the workflow. Appreciate any insights or solutions to this. Thank you, Henok ... View more
