Yeah I was disappointed to see this.. Can you configure pgpool externally to talk to the replicas or are those multi-az instances a black box? I've never used RDS before so I'm curious as to how much flexibility is afforded.

Unfortunately, no. Amazon RDS instances don't provide console access and are essentially black boxes.

just to clarify, this isn't true ^. I log into my RDS mysql console all the time.. mysql -h -u -p from a properly configured host..
