Your application connects to your cluster using the endpoint. An endpoint is a cluster's unique address. Use the cluster's Cluster Endpoint for all operations.
The following sections guide you through discovering the endpoint you'll need.
To find a MemoryDB cluster's endpoint
-
Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the MemoryDB console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/memorydb/
. -
From the navigation pane, choose Clusters.
The clusters screen will appear with a list of clusters. Choose the cluster you wish to connect to.
-
To find the cluster's endpoint, choose the cluster's name (not the radio button).
-
The Cluster endpoint is displayed under Cluster details. To copy it, choose the copy icon to the left of the endpoint.
You can use the describe-clusters command to discover the endpoint for a cluster.
The command returns the cluster's endpoint.
The following operation retrieves the endpoint, which in this example is represented as a sample, for the
cluster mycluster.
It returns the following JSON response:
aws memorydb describe-clusters \ --cluster-namemycluster
For Windows:
aws memorydb describe-clusters ^ --cluster-namemycluster

You can use the MemoryDB API to discover the endpoint of a cluster.
Finding the Endpoint for a MemoryDB Cluster (MemoryDB API)
You can use the MemoryDB API to discover the endpoint for a cluster with the
DescribeClusters action.
The action returns the cluster's endpoint.
The following operation retrieves the cluster endpoint for the
cluster mycluster.
