AWS API Gateway + AWS Lamdba + Entity Framework Core + PostgreSQL Aurora RDS An exception has been raised that is likely due to a transient failure

I have a serverless application using the following stack. - AWS API Gateway - Proxied to Lambda functions running .NET Core using Entity Framework Core for PostgreSQL to do reads or writes to PostgreSQL Aurora.

Every so often - without code changes or any infrastructure or other changes, I get the following error on a database query/savechanges().

System.InvalidOperationException: An exception has been raised that is likely due to a transient failure.
 ---> Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbUpdateException: An error occurred while updating the entries. See the inner exception for details.

I can't find a reason for this. I am running a fairly vanilla database first scaffolding of the database. The only thing that seems to cause it to occur is when I haven't invoked my API method for a few minutes. The first call has this error, then any done after work fine. They continue to work fine unless I don't invoke for a few minutes.
