Tasks

For this task, create one publicly accessible RDS instance using a free tier template along with the following details:

  • The name of the RDS instance must be xfusion-rds.

  • The engine type must be MySQL v8.0.36, and it must be a db.t3.micro type instance.

  • The master username must be xfusion_admin and set some appropriate password.

  • RDS storage type must be gp2 and storage size must be 5GiB.

  • Keep the rest of the configurations as default. Finally, make sure the instance is in available state before submitting this task.

Steps

  1. RDS → Create database

  2. Select free tier template

  3. RDS storage = gp2 and storage size = 5GiB.

  4. Everything is going well, but I forgot to select Publicly Accessible. I'll modify it now.

  5. Connectivity → Public access → Publicly accessible

  6. RDS → Databases → Modify DB instance: xfusion-rds

  7. Our RDS instance is publicly accessible now.
