To connect to a private Amazon RDS instance from a private EC2 instance within the same VPC, you can follow these steps: 1. Ensure Same VPC: Confirm that both your Amazon RDS instance and your EC2 instance are in the same Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). Communication between resources in different VPCs requires additional configuration such as VPC peering or VPN connections. 2. Security Group Configuration: Modify the security group associated with your Amazon RDS instance to allow inbound traffic on the appropriate database port (e.g., MySQL on port 3306) from the security group associated with your EC2 instance. For example, if your EC2 instance is in a security group named "EC2-SG", you would add an inbound rule to the RDS security group allowing traffic from "EC2-SG" on the database port. 3. Subnet Routing: Ensure that the route tables associated with the private subnets containing both the RDS instance and the EC2 instance have proper routes to allow local communication within the VPC. This configuration is usually set up automatically if both instances are within the same VPC. 4.Connect from EC2 Instance: Use the private DNS endpoint or the private IP address of your RDS instance to connect to it from your EC2 instance. You can use tools like MySQL client, pgAdmin, or any database client installed on your EC2 instance to connect to the RDS database using its private endpoint. By following these steps, you can securely connect your private EC2 instance to your private RDS instance within the same VPC. Ensure that appropriate security measures are in place to restrict access to only necessary entities and keep your communication encrypted.
To stop an RDS instance from automatically restarting every 7 days you can use below commands : Stop the RDS Instance: aws rds stop-db-instance --db-instance-identifier Snapshot and Delete (if not needed): aws rds create-db-snapshot --db-instance-identifier --db-snapshot-identifier aws rds delete-db-instance --db-instance-identifier --skip-final-snapshot Note: Stopped instances auto-restart after 7 days.
For snapshot and delete option, I'm not looking forward, but the one you share 1, not sure if it works, as I tried with lambda function but when trigger it will asking specific timing, using event pattern also asking specific timing. Ah, this auto restart is really annoying. Even after running the above command the RDS service is still showing"stop temporary" But thanks for your response
Hi,
If suppose my ec2 instance in private subnet then how we can connect our private RDS instance from our private ec2 instance.

Hello,
In the video are we creating the rds as IAM user ? if yes what is permission we have to give then to that Iam user.
Can you please specify the time stamp
Bro, can you tell me how can we stop RDS permanently as it auto restart after 7 days, even after disable maintenance update
To stop an RDS instance from automatically restarting every 7 days you can use below commands
:
Stop the RDS Instance:
aws rds stop-db-instance --db-instance-identifier
Snapshot and Delete (if not needed):
aws rds create-db-snapshot --db-instance-identifier --db-snapshot-identifier
aws rds delete-db-instance --db-instance-identifier --skip-final-snapshot
Note: Stopped instances auto-restart after 7 days.
For snapshot and delete option, I'm not looking forward, but the one you share 1, not sure if it works, as I tried with lambda function but when trigger it will asking specific timing, using event pattern also asking specific timing. Ah, this auto restart is really annoying. Even after running the above command the RDS service is still showing"stop temporary"
But thanks for your response
