+### Create and Configure AWS RDS
+
+1. **Search for AWS RDS on the AWS Console**  
+   You can either use the search bar on the top or select from the Database services in the services tab and select AWS RDS.
+
+2. **Create a Database Instance**  
+   Select the database engine you want to use, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, or Amazon Aurora. For this practical, we'll be using the default MySQL DB.
+
+3. **Configure Instance**  
+   Specify the instance type, storage, and other configuration options based on your requirements. For this example, we'll be using the default template (Free tier), user (`admin`), password, and make sure that you give an identifier and database name; otherwise, RDS will not create a database.
+
+4. **Secure and Connect**  
+   Configure security options, such as VPC and firewall rules, and connect to your RDS instance. For this example, we'll give our database public access to the application interface. Also, make sure that you have added the MySQL/Aurora security rule to the security group for connectivity.
+
+5. **Database Connectivity**  
+   For connectivity to the database, you need to create a connection string that consists of the database endpoint (host), name of the database, user, and password (master password).
