Using RDS Proxy with Amazon CloudFormation

You can use RDS Proxy with Amazon CloudFormation. This helps you to create groups of related resources. Such a group can include a proxy that can connect to a newly created Amazon RDS DB instance. RDS Proxy support in Amazon CloudFormation involves two new registry types: DBProxy and DBProxyTargetGroup.

The following listing shows a sample Amazon CloudFormation template for RDS Proxy. 

Resources:
 DBProxy:
   Type: Amazon::RDS::DBProxy
   Properties:
     DBProxyName: CanaryProxy
     EngineFamily: MYSQL
     RoleArn:
      Fn::ImportValue: SecretReaderRoleArn
     Auth:
       - {AuthScheme: SECRETS, SecretArn: !ImportValue ProxySecret, IAMAuth: DISABLED}
     VpcSubnetIds:
       Fn::Split: [",", "Fn::ImportValue": SubnetIds]

 ProxyTargetGroup: 
   Type: Amazon::RDS::DBProxyTargetGroup
   Properties:
     DBProxyName: CanaryProxy
     TargetGroupName: default
     DBInstanceIdentifiers: 
       - Fn::ImportValue: DBInstanceName
   DependsOn: DBProxy
