Procedure

The deployment of a RDS instance in a specific VPC consists in the following steps:

1. Create a VPC security group for the RDS instance.

2. Create a dedicated subnet.

This is optional, and it's probably best to do for the clarity of the solution, but it's probably not necessary.

3. Create a DB subnet Group.
