The recommended way to use MySQL with Django is to install mysqlclient instead of mysql-connector-python.
If you use mysql-connector-python, then you need to change the ENGINE to 'mysql.connector.django' in your DATABASES setting (docs).
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'mysql.connector.django',
'HOST': 'xxxxxx.compute.amazonaws.com',
'PORT': '3306',
'NAME': 'xxxxx',
'USER': 'xxxxx',
'PASSWORD': 'xxxxxx',
'init_command': "SET sql_modes = 'STRICT_TRANS_TABLES'",
},
}

pip install PyMySQL
Django: settings.py
import pymysql
pymysql.install_as_MySQLdb()
Source code pymysql.__init__.py
def install_as_MySQLdb():
"""
After this function is called, any application that imports MySQLdb or
_mysql will unwittingly actually use pymysql.

sys.modules["MySQLdb"] = sys.modules["_mysql"] = sys.modules["pymysql"]
