What were your key learning points/takeaways?
How to deploy a project to AWS using Beanstalk and connecting a database to the Beanstalk environment using RDS + having the correct configurations in your Java project (hibernate.cfg, database.properties, etc)
What challenged you?
I had some difficulties getting my data from my aws db to show up on the deployed application.
What problems did you solve and what resources did you use to solve them?
I just retraced my steps & re-watched the week 6 videos and was able to solve the problem! I granted all privileges to the Beanstalk user and then deployed my app to Tomcat. I could see everything was working so I updated the war file on my Beanstalk environment and that did the trick.
