Using Amazon RDS with Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

This section shows common tasks for working with a DB instance in a VPC. For more information about using Amazon RDS in a VPC, see Amazon RDS and the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud Service. For more information about Amazon VPC, see the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud documentation.

Note

With the release of Amazon RDS API version 2013-01-10, VPC security groups are now used instead of DB security groups to control access to DB instances in a VPC. You can use previous versions of the Amazon RDS API to modify DB instances in a VPC and to add them as members of a DB security group, but this feature is not supported in the current or in future APIs. For information on migrating existing code to the latest Amazon RDS API version, see DB Security Group to VPC Security Group Migration.
