Just to update on All.

1. You can download the bundle certificate which contains many certificates of Amazon from here https://s3.amazonaws.com/rds-downloads/rds-combined-ca-bundle.pem.

2. If you see the content of that pem it contains many certificates. Split it to multiple PEM files where each file will contain like this

   -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
       [main content]
   -----END CERTIFICATE-----
   

3. Then run this command for every cert file that you created

   keytool -import \
   -keystore  $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts \
   -storepass changeit -noprompt \
   -alias $ALIAS -file $YOUR_INDIVIDUAL_PEM_FILE
   

Just for making your life easy somebody has just created bash script for this : https://gist.github.com/shareefhiasat/dabe5e96dbd7123c7b101aac1c0eca8a
