Description​

The PubliclyAccessible value in the RDS instance configuration indicates whether the DB instance is publicly accessible. When the DB instance is configured with PubliclyAccessible, it is an Internet-facing instance with a publicly resolvable DNS name, which resolves to a public IP address. When the DB instance isn't publicly accessible, it is an internal instance with a DNS name that resolves to a private IP address.
