Amazon RDS now provides an enhanced console experience that consolidates and provides all relevant information needed to connect to a database in one place, making it easier to connect to your RDS databases. The new console experience provides ready-made code snippets for Java, Python, Node.js and other programming languages as well as tools like the psql command line utility. These code snippets are automatically adjusted based on your database's authentication settings. For example, if your cluster uses IAM authentication, the generated code snippets will use token-based authentication to connect to the database. The console experience also includes integrated CloudShell access, offering the ability to connect to your databases directly from within the RDS console. This feature is available for Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL, Amazon Aurora MySQL, Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for MySQL, Amazon RDS for MariaDB database engines across [all commercial AWS Regions.](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/) Get started with the new console experience for database connectivity through the [Amazon RDS Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/home).
