Re: Firebird on EC2 cloud, DB connection from laptop - how?

Hi All
I have set up an Amazon Windows EC2 cloud server and installed Firebird database Super Server, and a database file ...fdb
Is there a way using FireDAC or other in the box connectivity with XE6 to connect to this database from a Delphi VCL application on my own computer, also loaded with FBClient.dll vendor library, but not running Firebird.   i.e. a direct connection using e.g. a TFDConnection?
I have seen a connection from a laptop Delphi client app to a MySQL database hosted on a website using TADOConnection.
How to do this for an EC2 instance and for Firebird not MySQL?
Thanks,
Martin
