I created a Vpc with private subnet.
I created a RDS MySQL Instance.
I wanted to keep my RDS secure so I put it into private subnet and set Publicly Accessible flag to false.
The problem is, now I can’t connect my RDS from MySQL Workbench.
- Creating an EC2 instance as a bastion host and then setting an SHH tunnel seems unnecessarily complex and it costs money since we need to create EC2 instance.
- Using AWS VPN Client Service is easier but it costs even more money.
If there are any others, what are the best practices for accessing private subnet RDS with cost efficient options?
