How to connect securely from Redshift serverless to federated RDS Aurora cluster schema?

cn flag

I have a Redshift serverless workgroup inside a VPC, and I want to securely create a federated schema of an RDS Aurora cluster through a security group or another mechanism. The Aurora cluster is in the same VPC and uses the same public subnets as Redshift serverless. I created a security group for Redshift serverless and a different one for the Aurora cluster instance. Connecting only works for me by opening the MySQL port to all IPv4 in the Aurora cluster instance, which is insecure. I use the Redshift Query Editor v2 in the browser to test.

Here are some security group rules that don't work in my setup:

  1. In Aurora cluster instance: Allow MySQL port for the "VPC CIDR range".
  2. In Aurora cluster instance: Allow MySQL port for the "Redshift serverless security group".

What do I need to do in Aurora and Redshift serverless to have the security group with restricted access to only Redshift serverless and not open to any IPv4? Can I use the Aurora VPC endpoints with Redshift Serverless?

I'm also considering using a Redshift cluster, which I expect to be more expensive but also more secure than Redshift serverless.

Any help you can provide is highly appreciated.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
