title: Amazon AWS RDS vs EC2 with SQL Server
body: <p>We have a web application on Windows Server and SQL Server and want to move it to Amazon AWS.</p>
  
  <p>We will have an EC2 Windows Server running IIS but we have a question about if it better to have an RDS SQL Server database or if we should better have an EC2 bundled with SQL Server.</p>
  
  <p>For performance and replication what do you recommend?</p>
  
  <p>I appreciate your help.</p>
