AWS RDS endpoint address

Is the endpoint address of RDS instances unique across whole of AWS infrastructure irrespective of datacenter/VPC?

e.g:

aws.xxxx.yyy.rds.amazonaws.com

Every unique RDS instance has a unique endpoint, regardless whether the instance is public or private.

The RDS endpoint is comprised of:

  • The selected RDS instance ID,
  • An account + region specific hash,
  • The region ID
  • ".rds.amazonaws.com"

The account + region specific hash is constant for all RDS instances in the same region and the same AWS account.

Yes it's unique. It has to be since you can make the database publicly accessible and connect to it directly over the Internet via the endpoint address.
