To Create RDS on AWS
Introduction:
Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. It provides cost-efficient and resizable capacity while automating time-consuming administration tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backups. It frees the user from focusing on the applications so that the user can experience a fast performance, high availability, security, and compatibility they need. In the following tutorial, we will see how to create RDS on AWS.
Procedure:
Switch browser and login into your account. This is the AWS console
Then, click on services and search for RDS and then select RDS
Click on create a database, for creating a new database
Then, select the method to create a database. Here I am selecting standard to create for testing purpose
Then, select the MySQL engine
Now, select the version of MySQL. Here I am selecting the default version. Also, select the template and a free tier template is selected for further process
Then, the database and credentials process is carried out
Here you can define the storage of the DB. The default value for storage is 20 GB. So by disabling the autoscaling, I am working on default 20 GB storage
Now, this is the connectivity configuration part. Configure your VPC Subnet Group, Security group, and availability zone
Then, click on create Database
The Database has been created. Now click on the Database to view the details

Now, I am going to access the DB, for that, I am launching the DB. Now, the DB is launched
Now, access the DB for that I am copying the Endpoint from the DB
Now, paste the Endpoint to the instance and execute the command. To enter into the DB, enter the password
Now, I successfully logged in to the database. The database details are displayed
With this method, creating RDS on AWS comes to an end.
