public interface AmazonEC2

Interface for accessing AmazonEC2. Amazon EC2

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers.

Amazon EC2's simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon's proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes, allowing you to quickly scale capacity, both up and down, as your computing requirements change. Amazon EC2 changes the economics of computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually use. Amazon EC2 provides developers the tools to build failure resilient applications and isolate themselves from common failure scenarios.

                                       AmazonClientException

The RunInstances operation launches a specified number of instances.

If Amazon EC2 cannot launch the minimum number AMIs you request, no instances launch. If there is insufficient capacity to launch the maximum number of AMIs you request, Amazon EC2 launches as many as possible to satisfy the requested maximum values.

Every instance is launched in a security group. If you do not specify a security group at launch, the instances start in your default security group. For more information on creating security groups, see CreateSecurityGroup.

An optional instance type can be specified. For information about instance types, see Instance Types.

You can provide an optional key pair ID for each image in the launch request (for more information, see CreateKeyPair). All instances that are created from images that use this key pair will have access to the associated public key at boot. You can use this key to provide secure access to an instance of an image on a per-instance basis. Amazon EC2 public images use this feature to provide secure access without passwords.

IMPORTANT: Launching public images without a key pair ID will leave them inaccessible. The public key material is made available to the instance at boot time by placing it in the openssh_id.pub file on a logical device that is exposed to the instance as /dev/sda2 (the ephemeral store). The format of this file is suitable for use as an entry within ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (the OpenSSH format). This can be done at boot (e.g., as part of rc.local) allowing for secure access without passwords. Optional user data can be provided in the launch request. All instances that collectively comprise the launch request have access to this data For more information, see Instance Metadata.

NOTE: If any of the AMIs have a product code attached for which the user has not subscribed, the RunInstances call will fail.

IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend using the 2.6.18 Xen stock kernel with the c1.medium and c1.xlarge instances. Although the default Amazon EC2 kernels will work, the new kernels provide greater stability and performance for these instance types. For more information about kernels, see Kernels, RAM Disks, and Block Device Mappings.

The DescribeImages operation returns information about AMIs, AKIs, and ARIs available to the user. Information returned includes image type, product codes, architecture, and kernel and RAM disk IDs. Images available to the user include public images available for any user to launch, private images owned by the user making the request, and private images owned by other users for which the user has explicit launch permissions.

Launch permissions fall into three categories:

The list of AMIs returned can be modified by specifying AMI IDs, AMI owners, or users with launch permissions. If no options are specified, Amazon EC2 returns all AMIs for which the user has launch permissions.

If you specify one or more AMI IDs, only AMIs that have the specified IDs are returned. If you specify an invalid AMI ID, a fault is returned. If you specify an AMI ID for which you do not have access, it will not be included in the returned results.

If you specify one or more AMI owners, only AMIs from the specified owners and for which you have access are returned. The results can include the account IDs of the specified owners, amazon for AMIs owned by Amazon or self for AMIs that you own.

If you specify a list of executable users, only users that have launch permissions for the AMIs are returned. You can specify account IDs (if you own the AMI(s)), self for AMIs for which you own or have explicit permissions, or all for public AMIs.

Describes Spot Instance requests. Spot Instances are instances that Amazon EC2 starts on your behalf when the maximum price that you specify exceeds the current Spot Price. Amazon EC2 periodically sets the Spot Price based on available Spot Instance capacity and current spot instance requests. For conceptual information about Spot Instances, refer to the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud Developer Guide or Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .

You can filter the results to return information only about Spot Instance requests that match criteria you specify. For example, you could get information about requests where the Spot Price you specified is a certain value (you can't use greater than or less than comparison, but you can use * and ? wildcards). You can specify multiple values for a filter. A Spot Instance request must match at least one of the specified values for it to be included in the results.

You can specify multiple filters (e.g., the Spot Price is equal to a particular value, and the instance type is m1.small ). The result includes information for a particular request only if it matches all your filters. If there's no match, no special message is returned; the response is simply empty.

You can use wildcards with the filter values: an asterisk matches zero or more characters, and ? matches exactly one character. You can escape special characters using a backslash before the character. For example, a value of \*amazon\?\\ searches for the literal string *amazon?\ .

Parameters:
describeSpotInstanceRequestsRequest - Container for the necessary parameters to execute the DescribeSpotInstanceRequests service method on AmazonEC2.

Describes the status of an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance. Instance status provides information about two types of scheduled events for an instance that may require your attention:

If your instance is permanently retired, it will not be restarted. You can avoid retirement by manually restarting your instance when its event code is instance-retirement . This ensures that your instance is started on a healthy host.

DescribeInstanceStatus returns information only for instances in the running state.

You can filter the results to return information only about instances that match criteria you specify. For example, you could get information about instances in a specific Availability Zone. You can specify multiple values for a filter (e.g., more than one Availability Zone). An instance must match at least one of the specified values for it to be included in the results.

You can specify multiple filters. An instance must match all the filters for it to be included in the results. If there's no match, no special message is returned; the response is simply empty.

You can use wildcards with the filter values: * matches zero or more characters, and ? matches exactly one character. You can escape special characters using a backslash before the character. For example, a value of \*amazon\?\\ searches for the literal string *amazon?\ .

The following filters are available:

Images available to the user include public images available for any user to launch, private images owned by the user making the request, and private images owned by other users for which the user has explicit launch permissions.

Launch permissions fall into three categories:

The list of AMIs returned can be modified by specifying AMI IDs, AMI owners, or users with launch permissions. If no options are specified, Amazon EC2 returns all AMIs for which the user has launch permissions.

If you specify one or more AMI IDs, only AMIs that have the specified IDs are returned. If you specify an invalid AMI ID, a fault is returned. If you specify an AMI ID for which you do not have access, it will not be included in the returned results.

If you specify one or more AMI owners, only AMIs from the specified owners and for which you have access are returned. The results can include the account IDs of the specified owners, amazon for AMIs owned by Amazon or self for AMIs that you own.

If you specify a list of executable users, only users that have launch permissions for the AMIs are returned. You can specify account IDs (if you own the AMI(s)), self for AMIs for which you own or have explicit permissions, or all for public AMIs.

NOTE: Deregistered images are included in the returned results for an unspecified interval after deregistration.

Returns:
The response from the DescribeImages service method, as returned by AmazonEC2.
Throws:
AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example if a network connection is not available.

Describes Spot Instance requests. Spot Instances are instances that Amazon EC2 starts on your behalf when the maximum price that you specify exceeds the current Spot Price. Amazon EC2 periodically sets the Spot Price based on available Spot Instance capacity and current spot instance requests. For conceptual information about Spot Instances, refer to the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud Developer Guide or Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .

You can filter the results to return information only about Spot Instance requests that match criteria you specify. For example, you could get information about requests where the Spot Price you specified is a certain value (you can't use greater than or less than comparison, but you can use * and ? wildcards). You can specify multiple values for a filter. A Spot Instance request must match at least one of the specified values for it to be included in the results.

You can specify multiple filters (e.g., the Spot Price is equal to a particular value, and the instance type is m1.small ). The result includes information for a particular request only if it matches all your filters. If there's no match, no special message is returned; the response is simply empty.

You can use wildcards with the filter values: an asterisk matches zero or more characters, and ? matches exactly one character. You can escape special characters using a backslash before the character. For example, a value of \*amazon\?\\ searches for the literal string *amazon?\ .

Returns:
The response from the DescribeSpotInstanceRequests service method, as returned by AmazonEC2.
Throws:
AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example if a network connection is not available.

Describes the status of an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance. Instance status provides information about two types of scheduled events for an instance that may require your attention:

If your instance is permanently retired, it will not be restarted. You can avoid retirement by manually restarting your instance when its event code is instance-retirement . This ensures that your instance is started on a healthy host.

DescribeInstanceStatus returns information only for instances in the running state.

You can filter the results to return information only about instances that match criteria you specify. For example, you could get information about instances in a specific Availability Zone. You can specify multiple values for a filter (e.g., more than one Availability Zone). An instance must match at least one of the specified values for it to be included in the results.

You can specify multiple filters. An instance must match all the filters for it to be included in the results. If there's no match, no special message is returned; the response is simply empty.

You can use wildcards with the filter values: * matches zero or more characters, and ? matches exactly one character. You can escape special characters using a backslash before the character. For example, a value of \*amazon\?\\ searches for the literal string *amazon?\ .

The following filters are available:

Returns:
The response from the DescribeInstanceStatus service method, as returned by AmazonEC2.
Throws:
AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example if a network connection is not available.

void releaseAddress()
                    throws AmazonServiceException,
                           AmazonClientException

The ReleaseAddress operation releases an elastic IP address associated with your account.

NOTE: Releasing an IP address automatically disassociates it from any instance with which it is associated. For more information, see DisassociateAddress.

IMPORTANT: After releasing an elastic IP address, it is released to the IP address pool and might no longer be available to your account. Make sure to update your DNS records and any servers or devices that communicate with the address. If you run this operation on an elastic IP address that is already released, the address might be assigned to another account which will cause Amazon EC2 to return an error.

Throws:
AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example if a network connection is not available.
AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonEC2 indicating either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.

                                         AmazonClientException

The RegisterImage operation registers an AMI with Amazon EC2. Images must be registered before they can be launched. For more information, see RunInstances.

Each AMI is associated with an unique ID which is provided by the Amazon EC2 service through the RegisterImage operation. During registration, Amazon EC2 retrieves the specified image manifest from Amazon S3 and verifies that the image is owned by the user registering the image.

The image manifest is retrieved once and stored within the Amazon EC2. Any modifications to an image in Amazon S3 invalidates this registration. If you make changes to an image, deregister the previous image and register the new image. For more information, see DeregisterImage.

Returns:
The response from the RegisterImage service method, as returned by AmazonEC2.
Throws:
AmazonClientException - If any internal errors are encountered inside the client while attempting to make the request or handle the response. For example if a network connection is not available.
AmazonServiceException - If an error response is returned by AmazonEC2 indicating either a problem with the data in the request, or a server side issue.

shutdown

void shutdown()
Shuts down this client object, releasing any resources that might be held open. This is an optional method, and callers are not expected to call it, but can if they want to explicitly release any open resources. Once a client has been shutdown, it should not be used to make any more requests.


getCachedResponseMetadata

ResponseMetadata getCachedResponseMetadata(AmazonWebServiceRequest request)
Returns additional metadata for a previously executed successful request, typically used for debugging issues where a service isn't acting as expected. This data isn't considered part of the result data returned by an operation, so it's available through this separate, diagnostic interface.

Response metadata is only cached for a limited period of time, so if you need to access this extra diagnostic information for an executed request, you should use this method to retrieve it as soon as possible after executing a request.

Parameters:
request - The originally executed request.
Returns:
The response metadata for the specified request, or null if none is available.
