title: Connecting Rstudio to RDS - AWS
body: <p>I'm writing my thesis in DS and for that purpose I want to set up R and RDS in cloud. I have successfully set up both R and MySQL RDS and connected to the RDS thru my sequel pro.</p>
  <p>However, I am trying to access the DB in R, but gives me this error:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Failed to connect to database: Error: Can't connect to MySQL server on '...eu-central-1.rds.amazonaws.com' (110)</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Thanks!</p>
  <p>PS. Already read through multiple articles and viewed YT tutorials but non talk about how to establish a connection between DB and R within AWS</p>
