Project Task – Deploying and Securing Access to an Amazon RDS Database for the Todo List Application

In the following project tasks, you will learn how to deploy a fully functioning Amazon RDS database, which will be used to host end customers’ to-do items for the Todo List application. The database will be deployed using the MySQL engine, and access to it will be permitted only from the EC2 instances running the backend application.

To ensure that your EC2 instances can access the database, you will deploy a secret in AWS Secrets Manager. This secret will securely store the database credentials and make them accessible only to authorized instances running your application.
