title: DROP and CREATE on Amazon RDS MySQL Instance
body: <p>Is it safe to connect to my MySQL RDS Amazon instance and run a <code>DROP</code> and <code>CREATE</code> on the database (Basically re-create the database)?</p>
  
  <p>Example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>DROP DATABASE &lt;db_name&gt;;
  CREATE DATABASE &lt;db_name&gt;;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am just worried that there are some background "fingerprints" that will be wiped, like the database backup etc.</p>
