Create an HTTP API endpoint that calls a Lambda function to RDS Proxy.
When an HTTP POST request is sent to the Amazon API Gateway endpoint, the AWS Lambda function is invoked to issue a database query against an RDS proxy endpoint.
The lambda function retrieves a temporary token from IAM to authenticate instead of using native database credentials.
The RDS proxy will then establish a connection to the database, the lambda function will borrow this database connection for the next query/transaction.
