Amazon Web Services - RDS - Free MySQL Server Tutorial

[@MedyGames]

This is a fine overview. Im exploring free sandbox options atm for php & sql.

Great tutorials!!! You made everything much clearer for me to understand AWS. Amazon should develop tutorials in this level.

Hi Ravi, I didn't want to do that because I don't feel that the small snippet of code to show the working product constitutes "having to know"... I don't want anybody to think the RDS is PHP only or anything like that. The truth is that the script could have been in any server side language that can access a database. It's just that PHP is the most popular. I hope that you didn't feel that PHP was the only way or the "main" way to access the database. You can use any language you are most comfortable with. :) Thanks for the comment and recommendation - I'll see if I can't explain it better next time.

Great video Simmons. Covered every thing. If possible - upload video on Lamda services - how to set up cron job etc.

[@MrGuitarguru95]

This was a great video, very helpful. Very smart with deep and honest understanding

[@ahmad-rateb]

Thanks Ras your videos helped my a lot

[@Menneni09]

Simmons, good presentation! I would suggest you please mention the prerequisites to follow the presentation like php etc...

[@sensationalopie]

Thanks you man! Great video.

One of the best tutorials I've seen. Thank you! I would have liked to see you using Atom for the tutorial. It's likely to be the IDE for the majority of your viewers who are looking to learn. I managed to follow everything on your 1st video and using Atom + a package, I could do everything that WebStorm did. It was using Atom to follow PHPStorm that I really struggled with. May I put in a request for tutorial No.3? Would you care to follow-on and install a WordPress website on the same platform? Thank you again and please keep making these excellent tutorials.

[@JSAlter]

Thank you for this tutorial! It is practical and explanations are clear.

[@chrisp9476]

Thank you, great tutorial!

[@JonathanBaileyn2u]

Thank you so much sir for your time and ethics. Being not from a background in computer science you have made this a smoother transition. I left a well known hosting company to try aws out, in hopes to achieve more in my project, and it was quite daunting to say the least. But you have really closed that gap and I hope you continue with this series.. And more in the future. I have a question for you or anyone here... How are you able to sit in front of the screen share like this? Are you green screening your image and just screen capturing?

[@mikexue5104]

did you get the answer?

[@ezzabuzid8964]

Amazing My Dear, Thanks

[@talktomelikeimfive2536]

Hi, thank you so much for the tutorial. Everything worked for me except when I created the php file to communicate with the sql server. And it alway connection timed out. Do you why it would do that? I was able to connect to the data using web storm and sql workbench. Thank you! Sorry put this comment in the wrong tutorial the first time

[@d3daiM]

Thanks a lot

[@fadjarpradja]

Thank you very much for your video, and i want to ask some question. why MYSQL database not include in 1 server in EC2 ? in video you install mySQL in RDS and apache in EC2 ? i think we can install apache and mysql at same place.

[@JkeyKong]

how old are you? still work as programmer? I salute you

[@shawnli7814]

why use ec2 security group setting for RDS?

[@vocalists5555]

im getting an error (111 "Connection refused") with php do you know how can i fix this?/

[@funkupgamer5364]

When i try to search myip/name.php so i got the 504 gateway timeout error

[@jean-baptistedelabroise5391]

it doesn't let me do a free database server the EC2 ones was free but this one isn't.

[@erichunter3869]

Hi I have no idea why, but I am getting a Failure error when attempting to connect to the DB. Host, Database, User and Password are all 100% correct... any ideas?

[@jakekay0]

did you make sure the DB is publicly accessible in AWS?

[@alex_chugaev]

Aaaaaaahhm... uuuuuuuhmmm.... 🤦‍♂️
