Connecting to Amazon RDS through a java client using AmazonRDSClientBuilder

Question

I am trying to work with AmazonRDS (mysql) . With regular jdbc connection setup in a spring-boot application connecting, doing CRUD operations works without issues. I am exploring on AmazonRDS java SDK; I would like to use AmazonRDSClientBuilder/AmazonRDSAsyncClientBuilder to do the above operations. I couldn't find much examples out there, is there any one who tried this approach ? Is there a good reference link / documentation I can take help of to do this?

Answer 1

AmazonRDSClient, and all the other RDS stuff in the SDK, is for creating and managing RDS database resources. You don't use the SDK for querying RDS databases and performing CRUD operations. JDBC is the correct, and only way for performing CRUD operations against your MySQL database in your Java application.
