When it comes to databases and AWS VPC, best practice is to place your database in private subnet. By definition, private subnet in AWS is not reachable from the Internet because no Internet gateway is attached to private subnet. This is the way you protect your data. This kind of configuration is good for security but bad for data management.

How can you easily access and manage your secured data?

There are two basic ways to acees it.

	# This script will explain how to transfer a file to EC2 using SSM ONLY!

	# You will need to have permission to run SSM commands on the target machine and have sudo access as well

	# Infos
	INSTANCE_ID=i-1234567890
	FILE_NAME=the_file.tar.gz

	# Step 1: Run command on machine to install netcat and dump from port to filename
	# < Start session

	// This script will boot app.js with the number of workers
	// specified in WORKER_COUNT.
	//
	// The master will respond to SIGHUP, which will trigger
	// restarting all the workers and reloading the app.

	var cluster = require('cluster');
	var workerCount = process.env.WORKER_COUNT \|\| 2;

	// Defines what each worker needs to run
