We can do ?
There are multiple ways to do RDS data extract in AWS . We can take using manual snapshot , automated snapshot , export data to S3 and AWS backup service
What we can do most of time ?
To create clone of production server , it is easy way to create snapshot and launch new instance
But , Our Requirement to copy the snapshot in to different AWS account and launch copy of production .
Mostly we try with RDS automated snapshots to copy or share into different account . But in this case we can't share automated snapshots to different account
