Access to AWS Metadata from RDS MS-SQL instance

0

I was asked a question I didnt know the answer to , and before I go off writing a set of JSON wrappers around some http calls

  1. is there any access to the usual .254 ec2 metadata from an RDS SQL instance
  2. There does not seem to be any helper functions in the rds schema to get any of this data.

Specifically I want to programmatically get my RDS endpoint name in an SQL query ( dont ask why) and that might not even be available in the .254 data

thanks

  • Where do you want to get the RDS name from? Within a storedproc or else where?

I dont really mind - an Sp would be fine. ive some notion of coding up a bunch of http calls to the usual .254 to see what it provides if anything but i'd rather not if something already exists
