PubliclyAccessible (boolean) –
Specifies whether the DB instance is publicly accessible.

When the DB instance is publicly accessible, its Domain Name System (DNS) endpoint resolves to the private IP address from within the DB instance’s virtual private cloud (VPC). It resolves to the public IP address from outside of the DB instance’s VPC. Access to the DB instance is ultimately controlled by the security group it uses. That public access is not permitted if the security group assigned to the DB instance doesn’t permit it.

When the DB instance isn’t publicly accessible, it is an internal DB instance with a DNS name that resolves to a private IP address.

Default: The default behavior varies depending on whether DBSubnetGroupName is specified.

If DBSubnetGroupName isn’t specified, and PubliclyAccessible isn’t specified, the following applies:
- If the default VPC in the target Region doesn’t have an internet gateway attached to it, the DB instance is private.
- If the default VPC in the target Region has an internet gateway attached to it, the DB instance is public.
If DBSubnetGroupName is specified, and PubliclyAccessible isn’t specified, the following applies:

Specifes whether the DB instance is encrypted. By default, it isn’t encrypted.

For RDS Custom DB instances, either enable this setting or leave it unset. Otherwise, Amazon RDS reports an error.

This setting doesn’t apply to Amazon Aurora DB instances. The encryption for DB instances is managed by the DB cluster.
KmsKeyId (string) –
The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier for an encrypted DB instance.

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is the key ARN, key ID, alias ARN, or alias name for the KMS key. To use a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account, specify the key ARN or alias ARN.

This setting doesn’t apply to Amazon Aurora DB instances. The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is managed by the DB cluster. For more information, see CreateDBCluster.

If StorageEncrypted is enabled, and you do not specify a value for the KmsKeyId parameter, then Amazon RDS uses your default KMS key. There is a default KMS key for your Amazon Web Services account. Your Amazon Web Services account has a different default KMS key for each Amazon Web Services Region.

For Amazon RDS Custom, a KMS key is required for DB instances. For most RDS engines, if you leave this parameter empty while enabling StorageEncrypted, the engine uses the default KMS key. However, RDS Custom doesn’t use the default key when this parameter is empty. You must explicitly specify a key.

The number of CPU cores and the number of threads per core for the DB instance class of the DB instance.

This setting doesn’t apply to Amazon Aurora or RDS Custom DB instances.
- (dict) –
  
  Contains the processor features of a DB instance class.
  
  To specify the number of CPU cores, use the coreCount feature name for the Name parameter. To specify the number of threads per core, use the threadsPerCore feature name for the Name parameter.
  
  You can set the processor features of the DB instance class for a DB instance when you call one of the following actions:
  - CreateDBInstance
  - ModifyDBInstance
  - RestoreDBInstanceFromDBSnapshot
  - RestoreDBInstanceFromS3
  - RestoreDBInstanceToPointInTime
  You can view the valid processor values for a particular instance class by calling the DescribeOrderableDBInstanceOptions action and specifying the instance class for the DBInstanceClass parameter.
  
  In addition, you can use the following actions for DB instance class processor information:
  - DescribeDBInstances
  - DescribeDBSnapshots
  - DescribeValidDBInstanceModifications
  If you call DescribeDBInstances, ProcessorFeature returns non-null values only if the following conditions are met:
  - You are accessing an Oracle DB instance.
  - Your Oracle DB instance class supports configuring the number of CPU cores and threads per core.
  - The current number CPU cores and threads is set to a non-default value.
  For more information, see Configuring the Processor of the DB Instance Class in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
  - Name (string) –
    
    The name of the processor feature. Valid names are coreCount and threadsPerCore.
  - Value (string) –
    
    The value of a processor feature name.
DeletionProtection (boolean) –
Specifies whether the DB instance has deletion protection enabled. The database can’t be deleted when deletion protection is enabled. By default, deletion protection isn’t enabled. For more information, see Deleting a DB Instance.

This setting doesn’t apply to Amazon Aurora DB instances. You can enable or disable deletion protection for the DB cluster. For more information, see CreateDBCluster. DB instances in a DB cluster can be deleted even when deletion protection is enabled for the DB cluster.
MaxAllocatedStorage (integer) –
The upper limit in gibibytes (GiB) to which Amazon RDS can automatically scale the storage of the DB instance.

For more information about this setting, including limitations that apply to it, see Managing capacity automatically with Amazon RDS storage autoscaling in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

This setting doesn’t apply to the following DB instances:
- Amazon Aurora (Storage is managed by the DB cluster.)
- RDS Custom
EnableCustomerOwnedIp (boolean) –
Specifies whether to enable a customer-owned IP address (CoIP) for an RDS on Outposts DB instance.

A CoIP provides local or external connectivity to resources in your Outpost subnets through your on-premises network. For some use cases, a CoIP can provide lower latency for connections to the DB instance from outside of its virtual private cloud (VPC) on your local network.

For more information about RDS on Outposts, see Working with Amazon RDS on Amazon Web Services Outposts in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

For more information about CoIPs, see Customer-owned IP addresses in the Amazon Web Services Outposts User Guide.
CustomIamInstanceProfile (string) –
The instance profile associated with the underlying Amazon EC2 instance of an RDS Custom DB instance.

This setting is required for RDS Custom.

Constraints:
- The profile must exist in your account.
- The profile must have an IAM role that Amazon EC2 has permissions to assume.
- The instance profile name and the associated IAM role name must start with the prefix AWSRDSCustom.
For the list of permissions required for the IAM role, see Configure IAM and your VPC in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
BackupTarget (string) –
The location for storing automated backups and manual snapshots.

Valid Values:
- outposts (Amazon Web Services Outposts)
- region (Amazon Web Services Region)
Default: region

For more information, see Working with Amazon RDS on Amazon Web Services Outposts in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
NetworkType (string) –
The network type of the DB instance.

The network type is determined by the DBSubnetGroup specified for the DB instance. A DBSubnetGroup can support only the IPv4 protocol or the IPv4 and the IPv6 protocols ( DUAL).

For more information, see Working with a DB instance in a VPC in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

Valid Values: IPV4 | DUAL
StorageThroughput (integer) –
The storage throughput value for the DB instance.

This setting applies only to the gp3 storage type.

This setting doesn’t apply to Amazon Aurora or RDS Custom DB instances.
ManageMasterUserPassword (boolean) –
Specifies whether to manage the master user password with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager.

For more information, see Password management with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager in the Amazon RDS User Guide.

Constraints:
- Can’t manage the master user password with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager if MasterUserPassword is specified.
MasterUserSecretKmsKeyId (string) –
The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier to encrypt a secret that is automatically generated and managed in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager.

This setting is valid only if the master user password is managed by RDS in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager for the DB instance.

The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier is the key ARN, key ID, alias ARN, or alias name for the KMS key. To use a KMS key in a different Amazon Web Services account, specify the key ARN or alias ARN.

If you don’t specify MasterUserSecretKmsKeyId, then the aws/secretsmanager KMS key is used to encrypt the secret. If the secret is in a different Amazon Web Services account, then you can’t use the aws/secretsmanager KMS key to encrypt the secret, and you must use a customer managed KMS key.

There is a default KMS key for your Amazon Web Services account. Your Amazon Web Services account has a different default KMS key for each Amazon Web Services Region.
CACertificateIdentifier (string) –
The CA certificate identifier to use for the DB instance’s server certificate.

This setting doesn’t apply to RDS Custom DB instances.

For more information, see Using SSL/TLS to encrypt a connection to a DB instance in the Amazon RDS User Guide and Using SSL/TLS to encrypt a connection to a DB cluster in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.
DBSystemId (string) – The Oracle system identifier (SID), which is the name of the Oracle database instance that manages your database files. In this context, the term “Oracle database instance” refers exclusively to the system global area (SGA) and Oracle background processes. If you don’t specify a SID, the value defaults to RDSCDB. The Oracle SID is also the name of your CDB.
DedicatedLogVolume (boolean) – Indicates whether the DB instance has a dedicated log volume (DLV) enabled.
MultiTenant (boolean) –
Specifies whether to use the multi-tenant configuration or the single-tenant configuration (default). This parameter only applies to RDS for Oracle container database (CDB) engines.

Note the following restrictions:
- The DB engine that you specify in the request must support the multi-tenant configuration. If you attempt to enable the multi-tenant configuration on a DB engine that doesn’t support it, the request fails.
- If you specify the multi-tenant configuration when you create your DB instance, you can’t later modify this DB instance to use the single-tenant configuration.

  - StorageThroughput (integer) –
    
    The storage throughput for the DB instance.
    
    This setting applies only to the gp3 storage type.
  - DBSystemId (string) –
    
    The Oracle system ID (Oracle SID) for a container database (CDB). The Oracle SID is also the name of the CDB. This setting is only valid for RDS Custom DB instances.
  - MasterUserSecret (dict) –
    
    The secret managed by RDS in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager for the master user password.
    
    For more information, see Password management with Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
    - SecretArn (string) –
      
      The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the secret.
    - SecretStatus (string) –
      
      The status of the secret.
      
      The possible status values include the following:
      - creating - The secret is being created.
      - active - The secret is available for normal use and rotation.
      - rotating - The secret is being rotated.
      - impaired - The secret can be used to access database credentials, but it can’t be rotated. A secret might have this status if, for example, permissions are changed so that RDS can no longer access either the secret or the KMS key for the secret. When a secret has this status, you can correct the condition that caused the status. Alternatively, modify the DB instance to turn off automatic management of database credentials, and then modify the DB instance again to turn on automatic management of database credentials.
    - KmsKeyId (string) –
      
      The Amazon Web Services KMS key identifier that is used to encrypt the secret.
  - CertificateDetails (dict) –
    
    The details of the DB instance’s server certificate.
    - CAIdentifier (string) –
      
      The CA identifier of the CA certificate used for the DB instance’s server certificate.
    - ValidTill (datetime) –
      
      The expiration date of the DB instance’s server certificate.
  - ReadReplicaSourceDBClusterIdentifier (string) –
    
    The identifier of the source DB cluster if this DB instance is a read replica.
  - PercentProgress (string) –
    
    The progress of the storage optimization operation as a percentage.
  - DedicatedLogVolume (boolean) –
    
    Indicates whether the DB instance has a dedicated log volume (DLV) enabled.
  - IsStorageConfigUpgradeAvailable (boolean) –
    
    Indicates whether an upgrade is recommended for the storage file system configuration on the DB instance. To migrate to the preferred configuration, you can either create a blue/green deployment, or create a read replica from the DB instance. For more information, see Upgrading the storage file system for a DB instance.
  - MultiTenant (boolean) –
    
    Specifies whether the DB instance is in the multi-tenant configuration (TRUE) or the single-tenant configuration (FALSE).
