+title: Database Monitoring Easy Install for Postgres RDS
+---
+
+Database Monitoring Easy Install for RDS enables you to quickly set up Agents to monitor your RDS Postgres instances. After specifying a few options, Datadog generates a CloudFormation template that configures your instance for monitoring and deploys an Agent with recommended DBM configurations.
+
+## Installation types
+
+### RDS instance
+
+Datadog uses AWS ECS to deploy the Agent to the RDS instance. 
+
+### RDS cluster
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### RDS instance
+
+- The RDS instance's admin access username/password must be stored in an AWS Secret.
+- A security group must be configured on the instance to allow incoming connections from its VPC and outgoing connections to the internet.
+
+## Installation
+
+### RDS instance
+
+1. Navigate to the [Database Monitoring Setup][1] page.
+1. On the **Unmonitored Hosts** tab, click **Add Agent** for the RDS instance where you want to install the Agent.
