The IP address of your AWS instance will be the IP address of the RDS instance. The IP address 12.34. 56.78 is already in the name (depending on your instance). You can find the hostname in the AWS Console/Dashboard.
Solution overview. In the architecture presented in this post, you can connect to Amazon RDS using static IP addresses provided by a Network Load Balancer. You configure an Amazon EC2-based RDS router so that it can connect with Amazon RDS through a Network Load Balancer.
Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon RDS console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/ . In the navigation pane, choose Databases. The Databases page appears with the list of DB instances. For each DB instance , the status value is displayed.
It won't display the ip address on the configuration page for the RDS instance because RDS IP's are dynamic in nature. You can dig for them if you need them but you would be better server using the DNS endpoint for the instance. This remains static and can be found on the details tab of the RDS instance within AWS.
