Describe your issue as much as you can

(migrated from community.bitnami.com)

I’m using WordPress with NGINX and SSL Certified by Bitnami and Automattic
And I want to use RDS with it. Is it possible?

I saw WordPress with Amazon MariaDB RDS Certified by Bitnami and Automattic
but I don’t think I can use my auto-scaling template with my machine learning policy.
or Is that possible somehow?

Response

You can launch a RDS database and migrate your data to that new database. After that, you will need to configure WordPress to use that new database.

Once you confirm everything works as expected, you will need to disable the MariaDB database that is inside your instance

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop mariadb
sudo mv /etc/monit/conf.d/mariadb.conf /etc/monit/conf.d/mariadb.conf.disabled
sudo gonit reload
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh status
