Is there a way to find where a private IP/domain points to?

Question

I know that site I was given makes use of ElasticSearch. I know it connects to ElasticSearch via a private IP (domain). I can see this IP in EC2 console in Network Interfaces. The Status column says, "in-use," but no instance ID. What's the deal? Is there a way to find out where ElasticSearch is running? I haven't been given SSH access yet.

Accepted Answer

Hi,  
Most likely you are using AWS Elasticsearch Service(?). If yes, there is no ssh access to the underlying EC2 instance. It is an AWS managed service where you manage Elasticsearch through the Elasticsearch APIs and AWS API calls.

Oh, they've got Elasticsearch Service? :) That settles it. Thanks a lot, I've found where it lives :)
