I have setup a Amazon RDS instance that i would like to only allow my Bluemix app to access it
At the moment i have setup my Ec2 security group to allow all mysql traffic on port 3306, but allow all IPs.
My understanding so far is that a Bluemix app has a dynamic instance IP and changes each time after staging.
How can i find a static IP of my Bluemix app? I have read that using either the cloud integration or secure gateway service can help, but unsure how to do this with Amazon RDS instance.
The only way is to create an IBM container to get a static, public IP assigned. Image your app, load it into the container, and then mount. It looks like IBM is limiting 2 IP containers per account - so use carefully.
