Hi Bogdan-Andrei,

I have set the "certificate" and "private_key" in my script, as I explained
in method 1. However, AWS RDS doesn't support a client cert. Please refer to
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53760104/how-to-configure-x509-client-certificate-based-authentication-to-connect-to-aws

Is there any workaround to use the public cert list provided by AWS? Anyone
has successfully used RDS with SSL connections? Thanks!
