If you're managing databases on AWS RDS and missing the friendly UI of phpMyAdmin, you're not alone! While RDS doesn’t allow direct installation of phpMyAdmin, there’s a smart workaround — and it’s easier than you think.

What’s the trick?
You’ll host phpMyAdmin on an EC2 instance and connect it securely with your RDS MySQL or MariaDB database.

This setup gives you:
A powerful GUI to interact with your DB
Secure, direct control over your RDS database
Full access without compromising AWS best practices

Bonus: We even cover how to enable SSL encryption and protect your database in production!
Whether you're a DevOps engineer or a back-end developer, this guide saves time and boosts productivity.
