How Can I Create and Connect to an ECS?

  1. For details about how to create an ECS, see the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.

    • If you connect to an RDS DB instance through a private network, ensure that the ECS and DB instance are in the same VPC. If you connect to an RDS DB instance through a public network, the ECS and DB instance can be in different VPCs.

    • Configure a security group to allow the ECS to access the RDS DB instance through the IP address.

  2. For details on how to connect to the ECS, see section "Logging In to an ECS" in the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
