Yes, they have RDS: https://aws.amazon.com/rds/
It allows you to launch many common database engines, which are managed and backed up by AWS. I've been using it for a few years and for my use-case it's great.

Yes, AWS has product called RDS , where you can choose RDBMS such as MySQL, PostgreSQL , Aurora (MySQL compatible database) and so on.
DynamoDB is noSQL database.

I knew that DynamoDB is a noSQL DB, I thought with the noSQL hype and everyone doing MongoDB/RethinkDB back-ends now, they would simply say "In the cloud you have to use this and that's it"
RDS somehow sounded like the Redis service of AWS, hehe.
I learned React and later React-Native. Selling myself as a "mobile consultant" then worked fine, nobody cared "how" I made these mobile apps.
My idea was the same with back-end, learning some framework and start selling myself as "mobile cloud consultant" or something, with the hopes that clients also don't care "how" I create these cloud back-ends.
I know SQL, worked most of my time with RDBMSs, so this wouldn't be big of an issue. As I said I already did a few back-ends, but my focus was on front-end, usability and such.
I just mentioned DynamoDB because I had the impression that it was "the AWS DB", do they offer an SQL service besides Redshift?
