Q: Can I create a Read Replica of another Read Replica?
Amazon RDS for MySQL: You can create a second-tier Read Replica from an existing firsttier Read Replica. By creating a second-tier Read Replica, you may be able to move some of
the replication load from the master database instance to a first-tier Read Replica. Please
