A while back, AWS released SSM Port Forwarding Sessions:
https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2022/05/aws-systems-manager-support-port-forwarding-remote-hosts-using-session-manager/

This is very useful when you want to use a bastion host as a proxy for other services like RDS.

This is how it currently works in the AWS CLI, a similar component should be easy enough to create in this helper tool.

aws ssm start-session --profile ${profile_name} --region us-west-1 --target i-12345678901 --document-name AWS-StartPortForwardingSessionToRemoteHost --parameters host=my-databases.endpoint-address.region.rds.amazonaws.com,portNumber="3306",localPortNumber="3306"
