AWS Aurora MySQL serverless: how to connect from MySQL Workbench

Question

I was trying to use AWS Aurora Serverless for MySQL in my project, but I am impossible to connect to it, though I have the endpoint, username, password.

What I have

Answer 1

This can be achieved using haproxy

Install Haproxy on Centos-> yum install haproxy

delete existing configuration in this file /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg and add the below lines(make sure you replace your RDS endpoint url in below configuration)

global user haproxy group haproxy

defaults retries 2 timeout connect 3000 timeout server 5000 timeout client 5000

listen mysql-cluster bind 0.0.0.0:3307 mode tcp server mysql-1 test.cluster-crkxsds.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com:3306

After modifying the file,start the haproxy -> service haproxy start

You can connect Aurora RDS in MYSQL Workbench using Public IP with port no 3307
