Impacts and suggestions
Impacts
Starting December 07, 2023, you can no longer apply for a database proxy endpoint of the classic network type when you enable the database proxy feature for an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance, create a database proxy endpoint or proxy terminal for the RDS instance, and apply for an internal endpoint for the RDS instance.
If you have applied for an internal endpoint of the classic network type, you can continue to use the internal endpoint. However, if you release the internal endpoint of the classic network type, you can no longer apply for an internal endpoint of the classic network type.
Suggestions
Compared with the classic network, VPCs provide more secure cloud environments and better user experience than the classic network. If you are using a database proxy endpoint of the classic network type, we recommend that you apply for a database proxy endpoint of the VPC type. For more information about how to apply for a database proxy endpoint of the VPC type, see Manage database proxy endpoints.
