I have accepted the "Chromebook challenge." So far, I have successfully ssh'ed into my new Google Compute Engine from ChromeOS's built in ssh terminal. But now I am faced with the task of connecting to an Amazon RDS (relational database service) instance that a consulting client has set up for me. I have found no tutorials how to do this. I don't know if I should be ssh'ing into the RDS, or what.
Has anyone else done this successfully?
Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon RDS console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/ . In the navigation pane, choose Databases to display a list of your DB instances. Choose the name of the DB instance to display its details.
To access Metabase Admin, go to the navigation sidebar, click on the gears icon at the bottom, and select Admin settings. In the Admin panel you can add, update, and remove databases, as well as edit metadata about your data.
Aha, so there is no way of ssh-ing to an RDS instance directly (Chromebook or otherwise), as Fredrick mentioned.
That said, I have accomplished all I needed by ssh-ing from my Chromebook into my Google Compute Engine, and then hopping from there to my RDS instance, using the standard:
me@myserver$mysql -h myrdsinstanceaddress -P 3306 -u root -p
So, the crux is that you have to ssh into some other server, and then work from there.
