title: RDS Parameter groups - dynamic and static
body: <p>What's an example of a dynamic parameter vs a static parameter as mentioned here?</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Here are some important points you should know about working with parameters in a DB parameter group:</p>
    
    <p>When you change a dynamic parameter and save the DB parameter group, the change is applied immediately regardless of the Apply Immediately setting. When you change a static parameter and save the DB parameter group, the parameter change will take effect after you manually reboot the DB instance. </p>
