Update RDS SSL/TLS Certificates by February 5 2020

[jamezpolley]

You're receiving this message because you have one or more Amazon RDS database instances that need action in the ap-southeast-2 Region, listed in the 'Affected resources' tab in your Personal Health Dashboard.

In this notification, we provide new information about your Amazon RDS certificate authority (CA) certificate updates. We are sending this information to help make your certificate rotations simpler and to give you more control over the rotation process.

As previously communicated, the current CA expires on March 5, 2020, requiring updates to all client applications and database instances with certificates that reference the current CA. In order to avoid interruption to your applications which use SSL/TLS, we strongly recommend that you complete your updates before February 5, 2020. Client applications must add new CA certificates to their trust stores, including root and intermediate certificates where necessary. RDS database instances must separately use new server certificates before this hard expiration date. If you've missed previous communications on this subject, see this Database Blog post for more information:
